When Someone You Love Is In Prison
When a child or family member goes to prison, the prisoner's family suffers pain and humiliation that is generally not recognized in public life. This process wreaks havoc on family life, schedules, and emotions.
This booklet was written to address this often hidden trauma that affects thousands of families nationwide.
Two mothers--Nancy Van Dyke Platt and Susan Bulba-Carvutto--one an Episcopal priest and one a Rabbi, briefly share the stories of their incarcerated sons before offering practical, emotional, and spiritual advice for what parents, family members, and friends can expect to encounter in helping and loving a loved one in prison.
Includes prayers for prisoners and for their families.
