Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Say the word “ex-offender,” and most people immediately think of men. But women are coming in contact with the judicial system in ever-larger numbers, and face unique challenges in getting their lives back on track. We’ll look at programs available to women and assess strategies for breaking the cycle of crime, drugs and prison.
Guests
- Susan Galbraith Founder and President of Our Place, D.C.
- Arlethia Summers Ex-offender and client of the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency
- Tom Williams Associate Director, Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency
