Program Description

Event Details

Join us for a one-year anniversary screening of “Transforming Corrections," a powerful 2023 documentary that follows Connecticut's political leaders as they explore Norway’s progressive prison system.

Hear from incarcerated individuals, policymakers, and Norwegians about what is and what is not working. Discover how Norway’s focus on rehabilitation and redemption has transformed its corrections system and reduced recidivism. This is a unique chance to rethink incarceration, examine policy gaps, and ignite meaningful debate on building a more just and humane system right here in our communities. Come curious, with an open mind, and a willingness to be part of solutions.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A hosted by Brittany Lamarr and Andrew Clark of the Institute for Municipal and Regional Policy. Please sign up below!
