		The Sandy Spring Friends Prison Committee has published the 4th edition of the Prison Journal. This publication grew out of our Quaker visitation program in a local men's prison. The purpose of the Prison Journal is to give inmates a chance to share their talents and have them recognized. We also hope that this will foster a better understanding of prison life by those in the outside world. The Journal includes short essays, poems, and artwork from current inmates without regard to geographical location. We plan to publish it quarterly. You can help in this work. We are accepting short essays, poems, and drawings, (no larger than 8.5" x 14 ") from inmates. Submissions must include inmate name, ID number, and complete address. All submissions and request for copies (which are free to prisoners while supplies last) should be sent to: The Prison Journal, Sandy Spring Friends Meeting, 17715 Meeting House Rd., Sandy Spring, MD. 20860  Our website which includes a file with the current and previous editions is http://www.bym-rsf.org/quakers/pubs/PrisonJournal/index.shtml  .
