• November 2017
From All-American girl to her incarceration in a federal prison camp, Jennifer Myers speaks about her journey to becoming a prison advocate, the power of re-entry work, and the importance of restorative justice. Concerned with the thousands of children whose mothers are locked up— and a 700% increase of women incarcerated in the U.S. during the last 15 years, Jennifer offers the idea that empowering women inside prison—before they are released, can reduce recidivism and ultimately, reunite mothers with their children.
