How Will Maryland’s New Policy Impact Children?

A recent Maryland policy is making it even harder than it already is to parent from behind bars.

Starting this past November, visitors (adults and children alike) were banned from embracing their incarcerated loved ones at the beginning and during visitations (visitors are allowed a brief hug at the very end of a visit).

What Crime Victims Are Saying About Incarceration

A new criminal justice reform organization recently surveyed 800 people who have been the victims of violent or property crime in the last 10 years, asking them their opinions on issues surrounding incarceration and alternative sentencing. The answers received reveal quite a bit about the depth of support for justice reform.

Felony Disenfranchisement in America: 2015

A version of this post appears on the Justice Fellowship website.

Rating the Prisons Online

Most of us have done it.  When planning a vacation, or buying a car, or even before trying out a new restaurant in town, we first go online and check out consumer reviews.  Websites like tripadvisor.com, angieslist.com, and yelp.com can provide valuable, first-hand knowledge from others who already have experience with the places, things, or services we are considering for purchase.
