Kelly's Ordinary People Podcast

Education can unlock prison doors

Kelly Gurski Season 2 Episode 31

It's been a little while between poddys for me, but today I talk to my new friend Marcia Miller.  I met Marcia whilst holidaying in New Zealand recently.  She is just one of those amazing people who is smart, caring, giving and blessed with good comedic timing and sarcasm.    How could I not hit it off with her.

Marcia lives with her two cats and husband Tom in Illinois (USA).  Up until recently she worked as an educator in a prison, bringing schooling to those incarcerated.  She is now an administrator, but has not lost her teaching passion or the want to make a difference to her community. 

Marcia speaks so fluently and intelligently about prisons and education, and the reduction in recidivism education can bring.  I am sure you will enjoy this.
