The Fair Chance Community of Practice hosts a film screening of It’s Criminal, a documentary that highlights the economic and social inequities that divide the U.S. by sharing the life-changing journeys of incarcerated women and Dartmouth College students working together to write and perform an original play that explores the often painful and troubled paths that landed the women behind bars and shares some of their fragile visions for the future.
