This webinar – the second in a two-part series – will cover how to implement inmate education programs in prisons that are compliant with the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) standards.

Corrections officials and inmate peer educators from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation will share their experiences of creating and implementing such programs.
