Parental incarceration may have a profound and detrimental effect on children, heightening risk of offending and extreme disadvantage. The proportion of children affected is certain to increase as prison populations continue to grow. This research will identify policies and prevention strategies that will interrupt the cycle of disadvantage for children of prisoners and prevent social exclusion. Significant cost-savings and prevention of victimisation could result from effectively targeting this high-risk population, reducing risk of offending and increasing the young person's ability to contribute meaningfully to society. Appropriately timed programs can deliver a range of long-term benefits for children, families and communities.

父母被监禁可能对儿童产生深远的有害影响，增加犯罪风险和极端不利处境。随着监狱人口继续增加，受影响儿童的比例肯定会增加。这项研究将确定政策和预防战略，以打破囚犯子女的不利循环，防止社会排斥。有效地针对这一高风险人群，减少犯罪风险，提高年轻人对社会作出有意义贡献的能力，可以大大节省费用，防止犯罪。适当的时间计划可以为儿童，家庭和社区带来一系列长期利益。
