Break the Cycle. Build Something New.
Incarceration doesn't just impact individuals—it pulls entire families into cycles of instability, separation, and silence.
Our impact call to action emerges from Deyanna’s story to confront a system that criminalizes survival—particularly for Black women and mothers.
We aim to impact dominant narratives around justice and redemption supporting women navigating reentry, pushing for alternatives to incarceration, and uplifting solutions rooted in healing, care, and dignity—not punishment. Let’s shift what society sees as possible.
Because when we fight for Deyanna’s freedom, we’re fighting for all who have been silenced, criminalized, and forgotten.
Support Deyanna’s Ministry
While incarcerated, Deyanna Davis gave birth to her sixth child, Reighn. As she served her sentence and pursued a Master’s in Theology, she created THE DIN—Through Help Everyone’s Doing It Now—a ministry rooted in womanist theology, Ubuntu, and Christian ethics. Developed as her capstone project, THE DIN fosters healing, truth-telling, and collective care among incarcerated mothers in the prison nursery program.
Now home, Deyanna is bringing her vision to life—supporting justice-involved women and their children through incarceration, reentry, and early intervention to stop generational imprisonment before it starts. Your support helps make this possible.
A note from Deyanna Davis:
“Imagine a place where laughter fills the room. Where smiles reflect off the windows and mothers work hand in hand to raise the children. Everyone is working towards that same goal. Being better for their children. A place where we can let down our guards and instead of finding faults in each other, women empower each other. A place of happiness and genuine love. This is what I am aiming to give to the nursery mothers in Bedford Hills Correctional Facility. “
We’re proud to partner with Picture Motion, an award-winning impact agency, to launch a national campaign advancing reentry justice and challenging the criminalization of survival—especially for Black women and mothers. Together, we aim to shift public narratives, support community-based alternatives to incarceration, and promote solutions rooted in care, dignity, and equity.
Launching in Fall 2025 – 2026, the campaign will include community screenings, resource guides, digital storytelling, policy partnerships, and faith-based and educational outreach..
Impact Goals:
Challenge the Criminalization of Survival: Elevate narratives that reveal how women, especially mothers of color, are incarcerated for actions tied to survival, and advocate for restorative, non-carceral responses.
Shift Public Narratives on Redemption and Justice: Counter stigma and humanize the reentry process through screenings, storytelling, and direct engagement with impacted communities.
Support Reentry with Dignity: Mobilize resources, partnerships, and the public will improve housing, healthcare, employment, and child reunification services for formerly incarcerated women.
Interrupt the Cycle of Generational Incarceration: Highlight systemic failures and support community-based models that address trauma, economic disenfranchisement, and punitive policing.
In Solidarity: Organizations We Stand With
Our story is part of a much larger tapestry of lived experiences, resistance, and community care. Along the journey of making this film, we connected with grassroots organizations, mutual aid networks, and movement leaders who are doing vital work every day.
We invite you to learn more, donate, and get involved with these groups. This isn’t just about watching a film—it’s about showing up in real life.
