The value of the voices behind prison walls | Kim Bogucki | TEDxMonroeCorrectionalComplex 2014

A discussion on the unique collaboration of convict and cop working side by side to reduce incarceration in younger generations; done by using voices from both inside and outside the prison walls. Detective Kim Bogucki has more than 25 years of experience with the Seattle Police Department. She is currently assigned to the Community Outreach Unit. She has two goals: foster community outreach and reduce the cycle of crime. Six years ago, Kim co-founded the IF Project after forming an unlikely partnership with prison inmates that led to the development of an innovative program that utilizes writings and experiences from inside the prison walls to affect positive change. She also launched another nonprofit organization: Tithe One on which aims at re-messaging anti-bullying and creating communities of kindness.
