The Freedom Education Project Puget Sound (FEPPS) is a small nonprofit that offers a college program leading to an Associate of Arts and Science degree inside the Washington Correction Center for Women (WCCW). Our mission is to provide access to a rigorous college education to incarcerated women in Washington and create pathways to higher education after women are released from prison. We envision a world in which people in prison can realize their academic potential through access to meaningful, sustained, high-quality educational opportunities; where a culture of punishment is replaced by a culture of human dignity. We do this with our fantastic staff and the leadership of our Board of Directors. You can learn a bit about us here.

We Believe that Education

Reduces Recidivism

Prepares People to Lead Thoughtful and Productive Lives Inside and Outside Prison

Teaches Skills Needed to Obtain Meaningful Employment and Economic Stability Post-Release

Prepares Women in Prison to Become Providers, Leaders, and Examples for Their Families and Communities

Formerly incarcerated people strongly encouraged to apply.
