Working with Children with an Incarcerated Parent - S04 E44

In this week’s episode, Mary Woodward, SPA’s Senior Advisor – Justice, speaks with Katy Eccleston and Emma Agostino, Child and Family workers with Shine for Kids. Katy and Emma explore the important considerations for speech pathologists when working with children who have an incarcerated parent, in the context of 20% of Aboriginal children and 5% of non-Aboriginal children experiencing parental incarceration at some point in their lifetime.
