Synopsis

Parental Incarceration is a collection of personal stories by adults who have experienced parental incarceration as children. These stories highlight the complex circumstances that influence these children's health, development, and their high risk for intergenerational crime and incarceration. Denise Johnston examines her own children's experience of her incarceration within the context of her 30 years of practice with prisoners. Megan Sullivan, a scholar in the Humanities, examines the effects of her father's incarceration on her family and with respect to her own educational and class outcomes.
