Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Prison and the Family written by Marie Hutton and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook brings together the international research focussing on prisoners’ families and the impact of imprisonment on them. Under-researched and under-theorised in the realm of scholarship on imprisonment, this handbook encompasses a broad range of original, interdisciplinary and cross-national research. This volume includes the experiences of those from countries often unrepresented in the prisoner’s families’ literature such as Russia, Australia, Israel and Canada. This broad coverage allows readers to consider how prisoners’ families are affected by imprisonment in countries embracing very different penal philosophies; ranging from the hyper-incarceration being experienced in the USA to the less punitive, more welfare-orientated practices under Scandinavian ‘exceptionalism’. Chapters are contributed by scholars from numerous and diverse disciplines ranging from law, nursing, criminology, psychology, human geography, and education studies. Furthermore, contributions span various methodological and epistemological approaches with important contributions from NGOs working in this area at a national and supranational level. The Palgrave Handbook of Prison and the Family makes a significant contribution to knowledge about who prisoners’ families are and what this status means in practice. It also recognises the autonomy and value of prisoners’ families as a research subject in their own right.

Download or read book When You Have to Go to Prison written by Margaret R. Kohut and published by Atlantic Publishing Company. This book was released on 2011 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of people incarcerated across the United States reached two million in 2002. That number has increased since then, and the U.S. holds the highest incarceration rate in the world - one out of every 100 Americans are in prison. The rate of imprisoned females is rising at a faster rate than imprisoned males, and many individuals are imprisoned for non-violent crimes. Individuals with otherwise respectable lives are incarcerated with little or no idea of what to expect and how it will affect them and their families. This book was written to help anyone who is preparing to go to prison with the possibilities, expectations, and realities of their situation from the strain it will put on a marriage, to the conversations you will need to have with your children. You will learn everything you need to know about prison that the system is unwilling to tell you. Learn how visitation works and how often you will be able to see your family. Learn how to discuss prison with your children and how to maintain a healthy relationship with your spouse regardless of the duration of your incarceration. Learn about the unique issues women go through in prison. Learn how to write a loving letter and how to effectively bide your time in prison without succumbing to the temptations and bad influences. Learn how to maintain your dignity and the respect of your children despite everything that has happened, by consistently keeping in touch. After interviewing more than 100 past and present inmates along with their families, this book provides a complete perspective into how people respond to the prospect and reality of incarceration, and what you can do to prepare for those realities. Learn what prison life is really like depending on your crime and where you will be sent. Learn how you can reduce your prison time through good behavior and how you can: prepare your family for your departure, prepare your finances, ensure friends or family members will help your spouse, and set aside the necessary resources to maintain your family's lifestyle and comfort. For anyone preparing to go to prison and leaving behind a family, this book will provide the necessary information that no one else is willing to tell you before you go in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You know anyone currently incarcerated in jail or prison? Here is the perfect gift for them. Do you have a loved one in jail or prison, a brother, sister, a father, mother, a son, daughter, a friend? This book is for them, something you can send them to give them hope, a future and transformation, to give them something to look forward to, to motivate them to improve themselves while doing their time. This book can put their feet on the right path. Men and Women who are serving time as prisoners and their families will appreciate the hope, growth and betterment of their loved ones. Those incarcerated in prison will feel part of a wider community of people striving to improve and reach their personal best as they use this transformational thinking writing journal. Imagine hope, healing, forgiveness, and self-improvement for your friends and family no matter their situation or environment. Many friends and family of people who have been incarcerated miss their loved ones and wish they could do more than visit once every now and then. Some wonder if their loved one will be released only to be jailed again, some children miss their imprisoned parents. This notebook is designed to be given to inmates to write their thoughts and feelings and to plan for a brighter future. Transformation happens when they write their plans, dreams or visions about the future, and prepare themselves to rejoin society no matter how much time they have spent while away. Those serving life imprisonments will also find it useful as it is an internal makeover. This is the notebook that provides the hope and inspiration inmates and their families need, containing over 110 pages of prompts to evoke personal questions and answers to guide them to plan for their best future, and to make better choices. Whether your loved one is behind bars because of addiction or anxiety related disorders, or they were wrongly imprisoned altogether, you can help them to stay in touch with themselves and others outside the confinement of the walls, by writing and journaling. Dissociative disorders together with Post Traumatic Stress Disorders (PTSD) and other depressive and manic disorders can be avoided simply by staying connected and bonding to others in a nonjudgmental relationship. Using this writing journal can be a form of personal cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). IMPORTANT: Some key things about sending books to friends and family behind bars... If you order this book and send it to yourself, then send it to them yourself in a box, they will most likely be rejected for security reasons. It is highly recommended that you order and send directly from a publisher or seller like amazon, and that you do not send more than three books in one shipping. Ordering books for an inmate through an online retailer is easy, you just have to make sure that you ship it directly from the retailer to the inmate's mailing address. Put the inmate's first name and last name followed by the inmate's ID number in the name line of the shipping address (John Doe, 12345). Next line put the facility name and then the address, so if I were sending an inmate items to Ulster Correctional Facility it would look like this: Frank Doe, #123456 The Name of Correctional Facility P.O. Box 600 Napanoch, New York 17478-0890
