What happens when faith meets incarceration?

In this powerful episode of Modern America, we dive into the transformative work happening inside Deborah Johnson Rehabilitation Center (DJRC) in Nashville, Tennessee. Faith-based mentorship, community, and rehabilitation services are offering hope to women in the prison system—many of whom are mothers and battling addiction. But is it enough?

🔑 Key Takeaways:
🔹 75% of incarcerated women are mothers—many struggling to stay connected to their children
🔹 9 out of 10 women inside DJRC battle addiction, showing the deep ties between substance abuse and incarceration
🔹 Drugs, including Suboxone and meth, are rampant in prison—sometimes leading to addiction that starts behind bars
🔹 The role of faith-based services in transforming lives and offering second chances
🔹 Why mentorship matters—one-on-one guidance is helping women prepare for parole and life after release

This clip sheds light on the challenges these women face and the power of faith, mentorship, and community in helping them rebuild their lives.
