麻豆约拍

Summer鈥檚 story is about having a parent in prison.

Summer felt like her life was pretty normal, until one day following a knock on the door by police, her Dad was sent to prison. Having been particularly close to her Dad and no understanding of the criminal justice system except from TV shows she didn鈥檛 know what this would now mean for her and her family. Summer had to face not only the huge loss of no longer having her Dad at home but also learn to navigate a system which seemed to be lacking support for young people.

Summer wants to share her story to show the impact the prison service has on the children of prisoners, and she hopes also to help alleviate the stigma attached to her family鈥檚 circumstance.
