Shockwaves Part 1

What's it like to find out that someone you love has committed a crime?  Not top of mind thinking for most people, unless you are a prison family member.  If you are, those thoughts intrude on pretty much every waking moment.  People that we love have harmed someone else.  Sometimes they have also harmed us, emotionally, financially, or physically.  This series explores the impacts of incarceration on family members of incarcerated people. In episode 1, you'll meet Madeline and Gail, prison family members and your hosts, along with a handful of incredible individuals with lived experience in this area.
