Ameelio is a pioneering non-profit committed to using technology to make a significant social impact. Our mission encompasses the development and implementation of innovative tech solutions that improve the lives of incarcerated individuals and their families. We focus on enhancing communications and expanding educational opportunities within correctional facilities, which are crucial for maintaining family connections and supporting rehabilitation.

By providing free and accessible communication tools, we help preserve essential support structures that significantly reduce recidivism. We also challenge the unjust practices of incumbents in the industry who impose high costs on communications, ensuring that families, especially those least able to afford these fees, can stay connected without financial burden.

Join us in our mission to empower educators, improve familial connections, and fight against systemic exploitation in the communication services for incarcerated individuals and their families.
