Author Talk: Deborah Jiang-Stein

Jill Bernstein, co-chair of the Incarceration Prevention and Reduction Task Force, will interview Deborah Jiang-Stein, author of the memoir PRISON BABY and founder of the unPrison Project, a nonprofit serving incarcerated women and girls.

Discussion will include Deborah’s insights from work inside prisons across the country, why we have mass incarceration, community alternatives that work, and more about her story as an example of the collateral damage that happens when mothers are incarcerated.

Prison Baby is described as “One woman’s struggles—beginning with her birth in prison—to find self-acceptance, proving that redemption and healing are possible, even from the darkest corners.”

The event is free of charge. Donate $20 or more to the unPrison Project and receive a signed copy of Prison Baby.
