History
Our Mission
San Quentin News reports on news and stories that impact incarcerated people.
San Quentin News
Today, SQ News prints 35,000 newspapers each month and distributes them to all 30+ CDCR prisons, universities, and public libraries, to thousands of subscribers across the country. Through a partnership with Edovo San Quentin News is made digitally accessible across the country in more than 740 facilities, free of charge. The state of California does not fund the paper. It is funded by grants from foundations, generous private donations, and fundraising events hosted by Pollen Initiative. You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube @SanQuentinNews.
