Survived and Punished (stylized as Survived & Punished or S&P) is an American national volunteer-run organization that campaigns for the abolition of custodial sentences for victims of abuse who defended themselves from their attacker.[1] The organization focuses on preventing the imprisonment of victims of assault, estimated to comprise almost 90% of women in United States' prisons,[2] of whom most are arrested for defending themselves from domestic and intimate partner violence.[3][4][5][6][7][8]
The organization has branches in Chicago, New York, and California. Survived & Punished at large initially grew out of efforts from abolitionist organizers like Mariame Kaba to free Marissa Alexander.[4] The Chicago branch is now titled "Love & Protect" and it was previously known as the "Chicago Alliance to Free Marissa Alexander", while the New York and California branches are referred to as S&P NY and S&P California, respectively.[3][9] Local groups operate autonomously but report regularly to S&P National to affirm chapter alignment with organizational goals.[citation needed]
