"Education is Freedom"

Graduation at ACI

Project Book supports continuing education conducted by ACI and CCRI at the Adult Correctional Institute for  inmate-students who cannot afford the required texts

Please Help!
Donate your surplus books

Your surplus books will help student-inmates participate in continuous education at ACI Rhode Island

  • Inmate students can earn their Associate’s Degree while still incarcerated
  • The Courses are taught by volunteer CCRI instructors
  • The courses are free 
  • Books are not. And the cost can be prohibitive
  • Prison rules prohibit sharing texts or passing used books along to new students
  • The cost of books prevents enrollment of many who have neither the means nor family support
  • Project Book will turn your donated books into cash that will be used to purchase required texts 
  • We will collect your books at a convenient time and place
