Send a Holiday Video to Your Loved One!

For the holiday season, CRJW would like to help you and your family do something special!

Submit a video message under 25 seconds to your incarcerated loved one this holiday season to give some end of the year love and a quick hello! Anyone and everyone is welcomed to submit their messages! This will be shown publically for all to share in the spirit!

Submissions will be compiled into one larger video that will be shown at all CDCR institutions the last week of December.

Video submissions are open from October 2nd 2023 through November 17th, 2023, 11:59PM.

Rules for Submitting:

Please position your phone and record like the picture above.
Video submission must be under 25 seconds.
For safety reasons, please keep your message content generic; use general nicknames to refer to your loved one (i.e. honey, mom/dad, baby, etc.) and don’t show any photographs of your incarcerated loved one.
The video must be appropriate for all audiences and all ages; refrain from cursing, wearing clothes with strong language on it, etc.
We welcome videos in multiple languages, including sign language. Please provide a translation of the message as text with the video submission (this is needed to be reviewed by CDCR).
