2025 Mend Issue

It's hard to believe that we have completed the third issue of Mend, a publication showcasing the writing and art of those impacted by the criminal legal system.

Our launch party will be a hybrid event, where we will celebrate the 2025 issue of Mend and render, a new publication exploring the lives and creative works of impacted artists produced by Katherine Nikolau, a Writing and Rhetoric major who graduated in December through a SOURCE research grant.
