One of the most moving stories of the summer was about Camp Reunite, a weeklong camp that reunites locked-up mothers with their kids. We thought it would be great to recirculate the video. And we hope you agree. More than 5.1 million kids have had a parent in jail or prison in the United States, including 88,000 in Wisconsin, according to research published by the Annie E. Casey Foundation. Parent incarceration can have short and long-term effects on a child, and it disproportionately affects children of color. Do you have feedback on Milwaukee NNS's reporting?
