The Jeff Dicks Coalition is a human rights organization dedicated to the protection of everyone who finds themselves in prison. We believe human rights should be applied to all human beings, and that prisoners are sent to prison to serve their time, and not to be abused.

The Jeff Dicks Coalition consists of members who are committed to making a peaceful change in the procedures that direct the actions of those responsible for operating our courts and our State and Federal prison systems, as well as educate everyone who are unaware of how much inhumane treatment and abuses are being committed on prisoners.

Many people are wrongly convicted and sent to prison to die, either by the hands of guards, or by the death chambers. We believe that all prisoners have the right to be protected by guards who take it upon themselves to torture, rape, beat and kill those under their care. We believe that prisoners have the right to expect medical care when needed, and not to be denied that care or treatment because they are locked up.

The mission of The Jeff Dicks Coalition is to correct the abuses that we hear about in the system. We believe it is up to us to educate the public about what is going on behind the walls. We believe that it is up to us to speak out that killing in the name of justice is wrong. We believe the death penalty does not belong in a civilized society.

The Jeff Dicks Coalition makes   May 10, Stop The Abuse Day, in memory of Jeff Dicks who was wrongly convicted and abused by the denial of medical care. Jeff Dicks was killed on May 10th in Nashville, Tennessee because he was given the wrong medication which killed him. In his name and honor, The Jeff Dicks Coalition was born.

We must change our prison systems, reduce violent crime and reach out to the youth of today to stop the violence. The violence that is done to the prisoners are then turned back to society once they are released. We are releasing angry and abused human beings into our neighborhoods who are bent on revenge for the abuses they suffered at the hands of guards.

The Jeff Dicks Coalition intends to expose the abuses in the system, and try to help stop these abuses before it gets any more out of control. We must take out those officials who turn their heads when advised of what is going on. We must stop the inhumane treatment before we lose all that is dear to us.
