This training will provide an overview of the historical context of mass incarceration, why mass incarceration exists, how it impacts youth, and strategies to support youth who have an incarcerated parent.
It is essential for providers across disciplines to understand how parental incarceration impacts youth. Many describe incarceration as a shared sentence as it affects many lives.
