Children Need Dads Too: Children with Fathers in Prison

Submitted by crinadmin on

Summary: This paper attempts to bring together available information on paternal imprisonment in order to identify the issues, raise awareness, promote further research and encourage changes in policy and practice. This should be done in ways that complement the necessary work of supporting women in prison and children of imprisoned mothers. The aim is to ensure that children are a central concern in all cases of parental imprisonment and that gender specific concerns are fully understood in order to enable effective policy creation and the promotion and protection of the best interests of the child.Owner: Jennifer Rosenbergpdf: http://www.crin.org/docs/Children Need Dads Too.pdf
