What's it like for staff on the front lines inside a maximum-security juvenile prison? From inside the cell unit where she works with teens age 17 and under, psychiatric social services counselor Stephanie Roberts says the job might not be what most people think. In this interview, Stephanie talks about the empathy she feels for kids who struggle with anger issues and a history of trauma at home. She discusses the challenges involved in getting through to kids who have spent a lifetime in the child welfare and juvenile justice system, and how too many people often label these kids as "throw away" teens. Stephanie says it's her job to get to the root of the problems the kids bring with them inside, and work with them to help instill confidence and a sense of security before they return home to their communities.
