America's two million incarcerated men, women, and youth live in a hidden, isolated world filled with depression, anxiety, hostility, and violence. But the nation's soaring prison population has not been forgotten by a dedicated network of visual artists, writers, poets, dancers, musicians, and actors who teach the arts in correctional settings. This anthology compiles the narratives of several accomplished arts-in-corrections teachers who share their personal experiences, philosophies, and bittersweet anecdotes, as well as practical advice, survival skills, and program evaluation guidelines. Teaching the Arts Behind Bars is an invaluable tool for artists, program administrators, and corrections professionals, and a testament to the power of creative expression in promoting communication, positive social interaction, inner healing, and self-esteem.

Prisons are, by definition, closed, and the sense of confinement can affect staff as much as inmates. Not only is the work of educators in prisons at risk of being at best ignored, at worst disparaged, by the public at large; but also its closed institutional nature has often resulted in the separation from the mainstream of adult education. In reality many of the initiatives highlighted in recent years - the development of basic skills, the urgency of vocational education and its linkage to an element of social education, special programmes for the educationally disadvantaged, for example - have been the bread-and-butter of prison educators for many years. This sector has a wealth of expertise to offer a definitive statement; to catch a variety of interested eyes rather than allow strict comparisons to be made. Most of the chapters are concerned with a hardening of public attitudes towards the treatment of prisoners.The rehabilitative services in prisons would seem to have taken more than their fair share of the international pulling back from the expenditure of public money, and it is difficult to imagine private purses being opened for this purpose: there is not a great deal of publicity or glamour to be found within prisons. What emerges from this book is a sense of the writers' enthusiasm, whether it comes from their sense of social duty, a personal sense of outrage, a professional sense that students should be looked after, or a liberal instinct for human rights.

Today, prison education is almost non-existent. Why does it matter? Because our failure to invest in opportunities for correctional college education weakens the very fabric of society. Christopher Zoukis explains the enormity of its impact, not just on prisoners, but on our entire society and our nation's prosperity, in the hope that greater understanding will result in wise legislative action for our common good. Prison education is a concept whose time has come. It is time to stop studying the issue and stop discoursing. It is time to start the ball rolling and do something about it!

Male prisons can be dangerous places with a climate of distrust, but can long-term prisoners be given the space to reflect and grow ? This ground-breaking study found that engaging prisoners in philosophy education enabled them to think about some of the ‘big’ questions in life and as a result to see themselves and others differently.

A Proven Criminal Justice Model Direct and powerful prisoner testimonies by successful graduates of College Education Behind Bars (CEBB) breathe undeniable life into this remarkable story about the power of hope and the possibility of redemption. Confronted with an overcrowded jail overflowing with hopeless brothers and sisters, Dr. Aland Mizell conceived of CEBB as a light to shine into darkness. Making that light a reality required to seek out and create effective partnerships with government officials, criminal justice agencies, and forward-thinking university administrators. CEBB's academic courses and mandatory recovery program offer prisoners a realistic hope for transforming themselves into productive members of their families and communities, heightening success at reentry and lowering the chance of recidivism. The author calls for replication of this academic and rehabilitative initiative across the Philippines and the passage of a a Second Chance Act. "College Education Behind Bars is a symbol of hope in the era of mass incarceration. Through this innovative higher education program, Dr. Aland Mizell offers purpose to PDL, preparing them for release and demonstrating that education that should be available even to those behind bars - it's a gateway for second chances especially for those desiring a better future." Dr. J. Prospero "Popoy" de Vera III, Chairman, Commission on Higher Education, Office of the President, Republic of the Philippines "The College Behind Bars program that Aland Mizell built in the Davao City Jail is essentially a miracle: a thoroughly developed and incredibly organized education program in one of the most challenging settings I have ever laid eyes on. It is testament to what is possible when we truly believe in the power of education to change the world." Dr. Baz Dreisinger, professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, founder of Prison-to-College Pipeline, executive director of the Incarceration Nations Network, and author of Incarceration Nations: A Journey to Justice in Prisons Around the World Aland David Mizell, founder and COE of College Education Behind Bars as well as Minority Care International, earned his master's degrees in political science and public administration and a doctorate in political science with an emphasis on minority politics. He reads and speaks several languages adding to the breadth of his research on alternatives to violence, incarceration, and hopelessness. He is an American social entrepreneur and scholar, living in the Philippines.
