Welcome to Uncarcerated
For Us. By Us.
The system was never built to help us; it was built to contain us. When you leave the system, you aren't given a map — you're given a circular path that often leads right back to where you started.
Uncarcerated is our collective answer to that cycle.
Meet the Founder
Leigh Scott
I've spent nearly a decade of my life behind bars. I know the silence of the cell, but I also know the roar of a community finding its voice. Today, I use that experience — and my foundation in professional radio and filmmaking — to ensure our stories aren't just heard, but leveraged for systemic change.
Director of Community Engagement, Family Promise of Gainesville • Represent Justice Ambassador • Co-founder, Links not Locks
