监禁在美国投下了长长的阴影。目前，有140万人被关押在美国的州和联邦监狱。对于每一个入狱的人来说，都有一个家庭和社区被抛在后面。尽管受影响的家庭和儿童数量巨大，但很少有关于监禁对美国家庭生活影响的研究。在《囚犯一旦被转移》一书中，作者探讨了这一重要问题--从监禁对囚犯的心理影响，重新进入自由社会的困难，到囚犯一旦返回社区必须融入社会所面临的挑战。他们着眼于监禁期间的家庭功能，以及被监禁的父母返回对家庭的影响。最后，他们评估了目前的系统，并建议如何改善矫正与卫生和人类服务之间的互动，以更好地为不断增长的儿童，家庭和社区人口服务。这本书是至关重要的阅读任何人谁是关心寄养，儿童发展，加强家庭，和监狱后的调整。
Imprisonment casts a long shadow in the United States. Currently, 1.4 million individuals are behind bars in America's state and federal prisons. For every person who goes to prison, there is a family and community left behind. Despite the huge number of affected families and children, there is little research on the impact of incarceration on American family life. In Prisoners Once Removed, the authors explore this important issue-from the psychological impact of imprisonment on prisoners and the difficulty of reentering free society to the challenges faced by communities who must integrate the prisoners once they return. They look at family functioning during a period of imprisonment, and how families are affected by the return of an incarcerated parent. Finally, they evaluate the current system and suggest ways to improve interaction between the corrections and health and human services to better serve the growing population of children, families, and communities. This book is vital reading for anyone who is concerned about foster care, child development, strengthening families, and post-prison adjustment.
