Families Outside’s training modules are for any professional who wants to improve their understanding and confidence when supporting families affected by imprisonment in their own role.

All of our modules will aim to meet the following objectives:

• Understand the impact imprisonment has on the whole family in order to reduce stigma and social isolation
• Improve the overall experience for families, including children and young people, navigating through the criminal justice process from arrest to release

Module 1 will cover:

• The wide ranging issues that can affect families with a family member in prison
• Examples of how families can be affected at each stage of the criminal justice process
• How to apply this knowledge when supporting families affected by imprisonment

Our training has interactive elements and involves a combination of PowerPoint presentation delivered by our trainers, breakout room activities and group discussion.
