The Gender Divide: Tracking women’s state prison growth

1/11/2018

0 Comments

 
By Wendy Sawyer, Prison Policy Initiative
The story of women’s prison growth has been obscured by overly broad discussions of the “total” prison population for too long. This report sheds more light on women in the era of mass incarceration by tracking prison population trends since 1978 for all 50 states. The analysis identifies places where recent reforms appear to have had a disparate effect on women, and offers states recommendations to reverse mass incarceration for women alongside men.  https://www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/women_overtime.html
