The Johns Hopkins Jail Tutorial Program provides tutoring in GED and other subjects to incarcerated men, women, and juveniles at institutions across Baltimore and Maryland. Tutors have the opportunity to build unique relationships with inmates and develop a personalized curriculum for tutees. Many incarcerated in multiple institutions lack educational opportunities to prepare themselves after release, and Jail Tutorial Project aims to bridge this gap. Jail Tutorial Project focuses on building meaningful relationships between the tutors and students, and inspire academic excellence, challenge uninformed perspectives, and enrich the future of all participants. In addition, we focus some of our efforts on advocacy for educational opportunities in the incarceration system, as well as informing our community at large about the educational barriers that exist for incarcerated people.
