Welcome to the Midwest Rainbow News! The Midwest Rainbow News is written (mostly) by LGBTQ+ Prisoners and edited, printed and distributed by very dedicated free world volunteers. Our "Inside" Chapter has recently entered into a partnership with Liberation Lit who has so graciously taken over printing and distribution. We maintain a P.O. Box and, as funds permit, we create an account for our prison readers through Securus/Jpay.

By maintaining both modes of communication we insure our readers can reach out to us at any time in order to request advocacy in emergency situations. We deliver timely legislative updates, news stories, educational advice and resource information relevant to the Missouri/Kansas LGBTQ+ Prison Population. We are 100% dependent on donations, grant funding or personal out of pocket funding.

Please take a look around, read some of our back issues. We do not charge prisoners for a subscription to the Midwest Rainbow News. This newsletter is sent out to over 130 incarcerated members of the LGBTQIA+ community in Missouri and Kansas prisons, and provides a lifeline to news, community, and resources.
