About the event
Arizona State University State of Incarceration Summit, Advocacy Day
In this workshop, you will hear from leading advocates & organizations about the need for Justice Across Generations. When a parent is incarcerated, an entire family is incarcerated, and the children are usually left behind to bear the collateral consequences sometimes over decades. Our discussion will highlight legislative advocacy efforts initiated and amplified across the US by children with incarcerated parents, and also address the need to rethink lengthy and life sentences shifting from punishment to accountability, healing and transformation.
