April 15, 2024Our new three minute short shares a real and heart-wrenching story of the trauma and stigma created when a parent goes to jail. This is the situation faced by an estimated 400,000 children in Canada.
Monica’s Story: The Invisible Children of Incarcerated Parents was produced by Nancy Russell for Canadian Friends Service Committee. Visuals & Animation by Julian Brown. Source imagery generated using Adobe Firefly. Music by Vivat Virtute.
A very special thank you to Monica and her family for having the courage to share their story. We hope this video will help strengthen the voices of children and their families and to raise awareness of the harmful impact of incarceration. We hope you will be moved to realize that change is necessary, that “we can and must do better” for our children.
