About FREE | EXPO Wisconsin
A woman's freedom comes when she reclaims it. The FREE Campaign is focused on the unique issues of women who have experienced incarceration. The FREE Campaign was founded in 2016 by women who are members of EXPO Wisconsin, when they began to notice the lack of discussion of women's particular incarceration challenges.
