Women Writing…in Prison
This week’s VIDEO focuses on a writing program for women in the Oklahoma State Prison system, which currently holds the highest female incarceration rate in the USA. In one of my courses we’ve been talking about the correctional goals of retribution, deterrence, incapacitation, and rehabilitation. Although we’ve been studying these goals individually, I’ve long said that thankfully our justice system utilizes all the above simultaneously with positive results (sometimes).
Check out the video and give me your thoughts.
