Abstract
Abstract The Women's Prison Association (WPA) was founded in 1845 with the goal of improving the conditions of incarceration for women. Hopper Home, the WPA's main building, served as a halfway house, a federal work release facility, an alternative to incarceration program, and finally as a homeless shelter. WPA's services have expanded over the years to address the needs of women under the purview of the criminal justice system living in prison, jail, and in the community. The organization works from the understanding that the needs of women with criminal justice involvement are multifaceted, and are distinct from those of their male counterparts.
