Going Home: Teens Reentering Society (DVD & SV)

Description

#6468  All former inmates have a hard time adjusting to life outside prison, but teenagers face their own specific set of challenges after doing time. This two-part award-winning (Telly Awards) series shows how that adjustment process often plays out and how its hardships can be minimized.

Filmed in large part at the Riker’s Island Academy, a GED-level school that has helped turn hundreds of inmates’ lives around, the series covers the major sources of conflict that young people will encounter when reentering society. Addressing the day-to-day challenges of newfound, uncertain freedom, these programs illustrate how a support system can be built with the help of family, peers, caseworkers, and even correctional staff.
