Christina Vanorder: issues facing incarcerated women

Host Emma Lugo is joined by Christina Vanorder, formerly incarcerated at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility, to discuss inside to outside transition issues.  Vanorder successfully ran for State House in Oregon and she will discuss her life in Coffee Creek, her release, and her transition to her new life and career in Portland.  Vanorder is well versed in theft of wages issues regarding Oregon's thousands of prisoners who are paid slave wages for their labor, often pennies an hour.  We will also discuss issues regarding transition and post transition for female inmates in Oregon and what can we do to improve the experience of incarceration for female prisoners in Oregon.
