Our campaign is about sharing personal stories. In our “We are here for you!” series, people who have a close family member serving a prison sentence tell their stories. The stories are about their lives, in which prison was present for a period of time, which tore them apart.
---
They share with us their own personal experiences. What was the hardest part of their time away from each other, how they managed to keep in touch, many without seeing each other in person for nearly two years, and how their absence from each other affected them emotionally or practically.
Our aim is to show, through the personal stories of relatives and released prisoners, that the reality of prisons is not as far away from us as we might think. Quality contact is one of the strongest threads leading back to the outside world. It is family and friendships that enable people who have been imprisoned to reintegrate into society.
