Agenda

🕑: 06:00 PM - 07:10 PM
Held & Healing Documentary Screening
Host: Avrell Stokes

Info: Held & Healing, a documentary directed by Avrell Stokes and featuring Kristi Puckett, explores the powerful intersection of pregnancy, incarceration, and addiction. Through deeply personal stories and advocacy perspectives, the film sheds light on systemic barriers, resilience, and the pathways to healing and dignity for women navigating these challenges.


🕑: 07:10 PM - 07:20 PM
Exhibitor Visitation / Break

Info: Take time to connect, learn, and build meaningful relationships during our Vendor Visitation. This is an opportunity to engage with organizations, service providers, and community partners who are actively working to support reentry, recovery, housing, healthcare, and more. Explore available resources, ask questions, and discover new ways to collaborate and strengthen the network of support for individuals returning home.


🕑: 07:20 PM - 08:00 PM
Panel Discussion

Info: Following the screening of Held & Healing, join us for a powerful panel conversation centered on the experiences of mothers navigating pregnancy, addiction, and incarceration. This discussion brings together women with lived experience alongside service providers and advocates to explore the realities of maternal separation, the impact of systems on families, and what true healing and support can look like. Grounded in both personal stories and professional insight, the panel invites a deeper understanding of how we can better support mothers with dignity, compassion, and care.
