In the USA, if you have been in prison for 5 years or more and get released, you have an 80% chance of being back in jail within 1 year. Our criminal justice system is not working, neither for inmates nor for society as a whole. 

Now You Are Free is a podcast which explores our approach to punishment and incarceration and examines the effectiveness of punishment, rehabilitation, and retributive and restorative justice.

Our host takes listeners through extraordinary conversations which demonstrate the triumph of
the human spirit over adversity, and delve into what it takes to turn a life around. 

We will see that there is a better way forward to ensure that all citizens are safe and thriving.
