This paper provides an overview of family matters during incarceration as one means of informing public debate and actions in this emerging area of social policy and practice. The problems that families face when a parent is incarcerated and the strategies they use to manage those problems are described.

This paper addresses the psychological impact of incarceration and its implications for post-prison freeworld adjustment.

This review updates the previous literature on what we know about inmate needs and the programs designed to address those needs.
