Women are disproportionately disadvantaged in our prison and
judicial system. Incarcerated women are more likely to face sexual
assault, they are often denied resources like adequate healthcare,
and they are often unable to get treatment for mental illness.
Today’s conversation is a glimpse into an issue that doesn’t often
make headlines.  Rev. Sharon White-Harrigan and Guisela
Marroquín, our guests today, are experts on this issue. The New
York Women’s Foundation has funded the Women’s Community Justice
Association for years and the two-work side by side to protect
women and create change. Hopefully YOU are changed by what you hear
and want to help restore our communities and support the changes we
need to see in our justice system to create fair, just, and
equitable alternatives to incarceration. Produced by Dori
Berinstein and Alan Seales. A proud member of the Broadway Podcast
Network. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
