#161 iChange Justice Podcast - "What have we learned the past 3 years?"

Our 3-year programming anniversary is celebrated with four guests - Ava Sakowski, Colleen Dempster, Mel Hoover, and Irene Morgan talking with Joy Gilfilen, our host, about the range of topics, our learning curve, and some of the exciting things we've learned as we are uncovering how the business of justice really works behind the scenes of the media stories. Ava, originally a social services worker in the 70s, 80s, and 90s discusses the changes in the industry and how her family has been impacted. Irene talks about her learning about how the "system works for the system" and how she has helped hundreds of people recover and change their lives. Mel shares how the Restorative CommUnity Coalition has been digging into the roots of the social issues, and Colleen shares her fresh views and how we can use new technologies to bring solutions to the people in 2025, as we enter our 4th Season!
