Abstract:

Systemic discrimination results in the disproportionate imprisonment of First Nations mothers. Their incarceration undermines family bonds and cultural nurturing roles, and causes grief, loss and trauma for their children. Although First Nations mothers tend to be remanded for short periods or sentenced to short terms in prison, their imprisonment can have lifelong and intergenerational impacts.
