Many people have been systematically impacted by mass incarceration in one form or another. The systems has many issues. What are the issues of incarceration? Individuals released from prison must find housing, employment, and access to health care, in addition to reintegrating themselves with their families and communities. We are a collection of SYSTEM IMPACTED individuals. Our families have endured generations of structural racism, income and wealth inequality, and the devastation that mass incarceration has caused our communities. Helping families heal post incarceration with our non-clinical mental health component has made a difference in our lives.
