In the last 30 years, the number of women prisoners in Vermont grew at a rate more than three times that of male prisoners. And when women are incarcerated, children are disproportionately affected as well. Our panel will discuss how Vermont's criminal justice system impacts women, and share some of the efforts underway to support justice-involved women and reduce unnecessary and counterproductive incarceration. Learn about "For the Sake of the Children," the campaign to "De-carcerate Vermont," and Mercy Connections' mentoring program--and what you can do to help.
