Every Tuesday evening through May 4th, The Greene Space and the non-profit advocacy organization Worth Rises are holding virtual panel discussions about the business side of the prison industry, asking: who profits when people get put away? We're previewing those discussions with a weekly segment here on The Brian Lehrer Show.
This week we talk about personnel and companies that contract with prisons to provide training for correctional staff with Bianca Tylek, Worth Rises’s executive director, and Insha Rahman, Vice President of Advocacy and Partnerships at the Vera Institute of Justice, one of the largest justice reform organizations in the country.
EVENT, 7pm: Sign up for Tuesday's live virtual panel discussion on prison personnel HERE.
