How does incarceration affect a child’s understanding of love, absence, and family?
Join us for an honest conversation about the emotional impact incarceration has on children, mothers, caregivers, partners, and entire families—and how families can preserve love and connection through separation.
Featuring Alexis DeVon Smith
Advocate • Author • Reentry Strategist
Founder, Finally Free LLC
After spending 25 years incarcerated, Alexis now draws from his lived experience and professional work in reentry to support families, advocate for second chances, and address the impact incarceration has across generations.
Alexis will share his journey, discuss what inspired his book, read a brief excerpt, and answer questions from families.
