Drawing on original research from the Women, Family, Crime and Justice research network, this edited collection sheds new light on the challenges and experiences of women and families who encounter the criminal justice system in the UK. Each contribution demonstrates how these groups are often ignored, oppressed and repeatedly victimised. The book addresses crucial issues including short-term imprisonment, trauma-specific interventions, schools supporting children affected by parental imprisonment and visibility and voice in research. Bringing together contemporary knowledge from both research and practice, this ambitious volume offers valuable insights and practical recommendations for positive action and change.

Motherhood In and After Prison is based on first-hand accounts by imprisoned mothers/grandmothers of their incarceration. A feminist, matricentric tour de force, it deeply probes their multi-layered challenges and presents extensive new findings and recommendations.
