Keep Prisons Single Sex

Keep Prisons Single Sex (KPSS) is a campaign group that was founded in 2020 to advocate for the safety of women in prison. They argue that women are more likely to be victims of violence, sexual assault, and exploitation in mixed-sex prisons. They also argue that mixed-sex prisons do not meet the specific needs of women, such as their need for privacy and dignity.

KPSS has been successful in raising awareness of the issue of mixed-sex prisons, and they have had some success in influencing policy. In 2021, the Scottish government announced that it would be reviewing its policy on mixed-sex prisons. KPSS is also working with the Ministry of Justice in England and Wales to try to secure a change in policy.

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
