Polynesian Dances July 31 2015

Inmates from three different cultures came together July 31 at the Utah State Prison to share their roots through song, dance, spoken word and speeches.
The program was overseen by one of the Department’s Multicultural Transition teams, which work to help inmates discover or reconnect with the strength and healing that lies in their cultural heritage.
“We’re just trying to show people the need for inmates to connect back to their culture because it seems the farther we drift from our culture, the less grounded we are,” said inmate Rodney Liti.
Here is the performance by the Polynesian group.

If your loved one is a prisoner and their stimulus check was sent back to the IRS by the prison - you can have them fill out a 3911 Form
(just enter 3911 form into the computer search)
it may be easier to mail them this form and the inmate will have to fill out a separate 3911 forms for each stimulus check they didn't recieve.(1,200.00, and the 1,400.00)
There is also the option to give a short term financial power of attorney to a family member for this one action, so they can speak on behalf of the inmate and receive their stimulus check for them - to be deposited into their inmate account.
Some of the Prisons like Utah State Prison will not allow inmates to call the IRS number on their stimulus letter. they can't even put the IRS number on their call list. This means inmates who are without family or disabled cannot receive these checks without help, even when they were employed at the prison during the entire COVID-19 pandemic.
Many inmates are suffering with side effects after being exposed to COVID-19 at the prison and jails. some have even had blood clots leading to a stroke or even death. They have to pay their medical bills which vary on income and rentals of equipment like walkers.
please spread the word to all families who have
incarcerated family members all over the United States.
