For too long, the adverse impacts of parental incarceration have remained in the shadows. A companion to Children of Imprisoned Parents: A Guide to Holistic Caregiver and Child Well-Being (ISBN 978-1-4766-8716-2), this workbook helps caregivers understand children's stress-response systems and recognize how anxiety and grief may manifest in a child's daily behaviors. This comprehensive workbook provides caregivers with a safe space to practice, role-play, and tailor their responses to seemingly challenging situations typically associated with parental incarceration. Users will learn how to forge strong connections between primary caregivers and their children. The use of selected children's books as bibliotherapy equips caregivers to better comprehend children's withdrawal, stigma, sadness, anger, and even perceived acting out in the home or classroom. Caregiver-led reading activities provide a perspective through which storybook characters show children that they are not alone in their circumstances.
