PREA and Culture Change: Tutwiler Prison for Women Staff

This video is part of a series documenting the positive impact of the PREA Standards. Produced by the PRC in partnership with Just Detention International, the PREA and Culture Change series features currently and formerly incarcerated people and corrections staff speaking about how PREA is changing the culture of corrections—and making facilities safer for everyone.

 

In this video, four staff members at Tutwiler Prison for Women discuss how PREA sparked a dramatic turnaround at their prison, leading to improvements in staff morale and prisoner safety.

The videos are a very useful tool for staff trainings, and other PREA stakeholders—such as advocates, victim services providers, and health care professionals—can also draw on them for their work inside detention facilities.

Each video is also available in an accessible format including closed captions, interactive transcript, and audio descriptions.
