Makeba: Family Reunification
Visit www.familylifebehindbars.org for more info: This week’s column focuses on the issue of reunification. Getting reacquainted with a parent can be daunting at any age. Add the pressure and stigma of a reunion post incarceration, and the effects can be overwhelming and particularly stressful. These tips can hopefully start someone facing this situation on the path to a healthy relationship. If you are a child of someone who is incarcerated and you have a question for me, you have three options: 1. Post a question in the comments section below, 2. Send an email to questions@livesinfocus.org, 3. Call (646) 867-1891 to leave a message. I also welcome questions from others who might simply be interested in knowing more about how the life of children is affected when a parent is incarcerated. SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS: Have you turned to support groups and how did that help you through this time in your life? [Use the comments feature below or call (646) 867-1891 to leave an audio message.]
