Children who commit crimes need support and inclusion in socidty, not punishment and exclusion, and especially not incarceration in hard-time adult prison.

Transferring kids to this prison is unconscionable and is tantamount to child abuse.

Please be compassionate. Children deserve reform not punishment. All people do.

Rehabilitation is the way forward for society, not stricter punishment.

Close Angola for everyone. Angola is no place for people, certainly not kids.

Children are not adults. These kids need serious supports, not incarceration in a notorious and violent prison. This is cruel and unusual, just like locking women in prison with men is.

These kids need help to grow and change, NOT brutal punishment. Give them the chance life has denied them,

Treating children like career criminals is how you turn them into career criminals rather than returning them to society.

Please don't moved these kids to Angola prison. Prison for young people should be about rehabilitation. Having had 2 sons, I know their brains aren't fully developed until 25 years of age! Please invest in making them productive members of society instead!

No kids in Angola. Invest in Louisiana’s kids, families, and communities instead.

Please incarcerate where these children live so they might have a better chance of visitation from relatives and friends.

Children need to be treated as children.

It's morally wrong to place children (under 21 years of age) in Angola. As a Christian this should not be tolerated.
