For Episode 37 of "The Separation is in the Preparation" podcast it is my honor to be joined by Brittany Villalpando. Brittany is finishing her studies at UC Davis where she has conducted critically acclaimed research analyzing the effects that the use of lived experiences has on incarceration, recidivism, and well being. Brittany also works for Self Awareness and Recovery, a Sacramento based non-profit that assists formerly incarcerated folks with re-entry and rehabilitation. This was an incredible conversation that covers some really important topics. I highly recommend this episode and can't wait to hear the listener's thoughts and reaction. Enjoy!
