About this Event
Last year Ormiston Families brought together professional from across Suffolk and beyond to understand the impact of parental imprisonment on children and young people.
This year’s conference is a call to action.
It will be a day of bold thinking, lived experience, and practical innovation as we lend support to progress in government strategy whilst exploring what each of us can do right now to better support children and families impacted by the criminal justice system.
Together, we’ll focus on three powerful themes:
- Seeing the Bigger Picture
Understand the global, political, and legislative shifts that are bringing new attention to the needs of families affected by imprisonment—and why now is the time to act. - Hearing the Human Impact
Listen to powerful stories from people with lived experience of imprisonment. Discover what happens when support is missing—and what young people and families tell us they need from services. - Innovating for Change
Explore practical solutions and cutting-edge projects—from Minecraft-based engagement to school-Pr*son partnerships and global networks. Learn what’s working, what’s next, and what you can do to be part of the solution.
A conference for policymakers, practitioners, educators, funders and advocates to connect, learn, and lead change. You can expect to leave the conference considering ‘what will I do differently tomorrow to better support children and young people affected by imprisonment.'
