Jail/Prison and Deaf People: Wesley's Story

There is no doubt that being in prison is a traumatic experience. The psychological risks associated with being confined to prison include panic, anxiety, depression, rage, and even hallucinations. For a Deaf person, the trauma of prison is complicated even more by a startling lack of access to basic communication and services. Wes shares his story about prison life and offers advice for any Deaf people who may find themselves in prison. #deafinprison #accessibilityinprison #deafreturningcitizens
