Episode 77: Claire M

In this episode I speak with Claire, a community based social worker with experience initially in mental health before moving into the field of criminal justice. She has predominantly provided long term case management and support for women as they transition from prison back into the community. Claire is a strong advocate for assisting people to develop pathways and identities outside of the criminal justice system to reduce the numbers of people, particularly First Nations peoples cycling in and out of our prisons.Links to resources mentioned in this week’s episode:Incarceration Nation - https://incarcerationnation.com.au/Community Restorative Centre - https://www.crcnsw.org.au/CRC’s ‘Jailbreak’ radio program - https://www.crcnsw.org.au/services/jailbreak-radio/Paper Chained: a journal of expression from behind the bars - https://www.paperchained.com/This episode's transcript can be viewed here:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wyYbF7lQtl8bZANVHBsRvBatDqO7V-mHnCbfqXpix1o/edit?usp=sharingThanks to Kevin Macleod of incompetech.com for our theme music.
