Beyond Prison Walls – Supporting people to thrive on the outside
October 21, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

People exiting the justice system are over-represented in poverty and homelessness statistics, and as part of Anti-Poverty Week we will explore what more can be done to support people in this situation.
What would it take to provide a ‘softer’ landing for those re-entering society? How can we work together to minimise barriers to employment and housing so that rates of recidivism are reduced? How can we help people exiting prison find their place and become a contributing member of their community?
Join us for a panel discussion with representation from people with lived experience and sector expertise to see what’s already in place, and where the gaps are.
Light lunch at 12pm, panel discussion commences at 12.30pm.
