MEET LASHANNA
EKWIP FOUNDER

LaShanna Tyson served 13 years in prison during which time she made a conscious decision to turn her experience into something positive and has dedicated her life work to helping others who are impacted by the criminal justice system.

A mother of three, she experienced the extraordinary difficulties faced by women returning to their communities from incarceration. She saw obstacles such as positive reunification, housing, employment, and education that were barriers to a successful reintegration, dedicating her life to advocating on behalf of returning citizens and their children by founding EKWIP.

As a returning citizen, Ms. Tyson brings a fresh and unique perspective on the struggles of women and children who are impacted by the criminal justice system. She is a shining example of the idea that they have the ability to overcome those obstacles ahead and EKWIP them with how to prepare for it.
