Mass Incarceration and Public Health Perspectives
Understanding the impact of mass incarceration on public health is crucial for addressing widening inequalities. This issue delves into the eroding health of communities, the struggles faced by formerly incarcerated individuals, and the importance of promoting health equity to break the vicious cycle. With insights from studies such as those by Wildeman and Wang (2017) and Freudenberg, it's evident that the collateral costs of incarceration go beyond economic mobility, affecting mental health, poverty, domestic violence, and substance abuse. The COVID-19 pandemic has also brought attention to the challenges faced by detainees. Humanizing their claims and supporting initiatives to address these issues are vital steps towards a healthier society.
