What's Prison Reform?

By Jennifer Lombardo

In recent years, the prison system in the United States has come under scrutiny. The American public is beginning to realize that systemic issues such as socioeconomic factors, racial disparities, and the school-to-prison pipeline perpetuate the cycle of incarceration. This volume empowers students to question the traditional structures of the criminal justice system and envision a more just and compassionate future. The informative text, augmented with enlightening fact boxes and a list of age-appropriate ways to get involved, encourages young minds to advocate for change, challenge stereotypes, and demand a more equitable and rehabilitative criminal justice system.
