For the 2nd year, my work, Center for Healthy Minds, University of Wisconsin–Madison is co-sponsoring a JustDane Reentry Simulation with the UW-Madison Sandra Rosenbaum School of Social Work , School of Human Ecology, University of Wisconsin-Madison , and Center for Law, Society, and Justice. This year’s event will be held Friday, October 25 from 2:30pm to 5:30pm at Nancy Nicholas Hall (SOHE).   You should sign up for this simulation that provides an experiential view of the challenges that returning community members face when coming home from prison. Participants will fill the role of a returning community member trying to navigate the challenges and barriers of reentry and will hear from a panel of individuals about their lived experiences of incarceration and reentry. And there will be snacks!   Space is limited, so sign up soon if you are interested!
