Nearly 9 in 10 Trans People in State Prisons Have Undergone Solitary Confinement

Solitary confinement was sometimes used “as a result of harassment, discrimination, or concerns for safety.”

Nearly 90 percent of transgender people in state prisons have been placed in solitary confinement at some point during their incarceration, according to a new report by the Vera Institute of Justice and the prison abolitionist organization Black & Pink. “Most respondents experienced solitary confinement, sometimes as a result of harassment, discrimination, or concerns for safety,” the report says.
