Research into Housing Support for Ex-Prisoners w/ Alice Mills: 18th September 2023

University of Auckland Professor of Criminology Alice Mills recently conducted a study looking at the state of housing for those leaving prison.

Rawan spoke to Professor Mills about the lack of support that is available and how this can harm the rehabilitation of prisoners and their whanau. This included the strong correlation the study found between the lack of stable housing and prisoners ending up back in prisons. 

They also discussed the impact on Maori and the even more severe lack of support for those communities and what support needs to be developed.
