Project Jail Cell Explains the First 24 Hours After an Arrest

- For
- Families navigating the first 24 hours after an arrest in Alachua County
- Worth noticing

Field notes
The homepage organizes the project around two kinds of guidance: an ordered account of the first 24 hours and a pathways page for cases that do not follow that sequence. It identifies Alachua County as the first beta location and places a short form before access. Navigation also exposes government, funders, transparency, contact, and volunteer-oriented pages, suggesting an effort to document the project as a nonprofit operation rather than only publish a guide.
