《狱中诗人》是为印第安纳州立监狱(最高安全级别)囚犯打造的一个独特的远程写作项目，创意翻正中心的12名诗歌治疗实习生成为12名狱中诗人的导师。囚犯参与了一项研究，以评估在一年半的时间里，他们在个人成长、情绪平衡和自我表现方面的变化，在此期间，他们完成了18项任务。这个项目有双重目的：(1)通过文学和写作促进囚犯的个人成长和情感平衡，(2)提高诗词治疗学员的技能。
Poets-Behind-Bars is an unique long-distance writing program created for prisoners of Indiana State Prison (maximum security), in which 12 poetry therapy trainees of The Creative Righting Center became mentors to 12 poets-behind-bars. Inmates participated in a research study to assess changes in personal growth, emotional balance, and increased self-expression over a period of a year and a half, during which they completed 18 assignments. This project has a dual purpose: (1) to enhance the personal growth and emotional balance of inmates through literature and writing, and (2) to enhance the skills of poetry therapy trainees.
