Our criminal justice system has failed us as American people. It's almost like it's a taboo topic of talking about it and we just want to sweep it under the rug.
Ever wondered why criminal justice reform is crucial? In this episode of Elevated Voices, host Dysheka Bibbs sits down with Donna White, a passionate advocate for criminal justice reform in South Carolina. Donna, with her extensive experience as a licensed professional counselor and addiction specialist, brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. She breaks down the three pillars—education, mental health, and law—that SC4CJR uses to drive awareness and change within the criminal justice system.
Together, they dive into the stark discrepancies that exist and discuss actionable steps communities can take to fight for justice and equality. Donna also sheds light on the emotional toll on families when loved ones are incarcerated and the importance of re-entry programs in reducing recidivism. The conversation doesn't shy away from tough topics like the stigma surrounding mental health and the need for community collaboration.
With a focus on data-driven approaches, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in making a difference. Tune in to hear real stories and practical advice on championing change.
