As part of Santa Cruz Public Libraries (SCPL) Outreach, the Jail Reach team provides access to information, education, and community resources through library programs and services to youth and adults who are incarcerated in Santa Cruz County. We provide library account registration, library book lending, and refer reference requests to San Francisco Public Library's jail services team. We also offer People & Stories, a short story workshop, which invites participants to learn more about themselves, others, and the world through discussion of short stories & the issues they raise.

If you'd like to learn more about the Jail Reach programs and services, contact Jesse Silva at 831-427-7700 x7669 or silvaj@santacruzpl.org
