Fry’s work on women's prisons

Fry’s work on women's prisons focuses on the unique challenges and needs of female inmates. She emphasizes the importance of understanding the social, psychological, and economic factors that contribute to women's criminal behavior. Fry advocates for reforming the prison system to better support rehabilitation rather than punishment, addressing issues such as trauma, mental health, and family connections. By promoting gender-sensitive approaches, her work aims to create a more equitable and effective system that recognizes women's roles as caregivers and the complexities of their experiences both in and out of prison.
