Working out the Kinks with Tash the Doula
My name is Tash and I have many roles in life. I'm a doula. An herbalist. An advocate. I'm also a wife, sister, daughter, aunt, and friend. My goal is to have some real and honest conversations I just want people to know you're not alone. Personally, I went through different situations in life, feeling like I was the only one having bad thoughts, and when I finally started opening up, I realize I was one of many.

How to become a Prisoner Advocate w/ Wan Qi
Wan Qi Kong talks about the Orleans Public Defenders Office, which provides legal counsel to people who can't afford it. Wan Qi also explained her role as a client advocate, which involves helping people reduce recidivism and navigate systems.
Wan Qi Kong discussed the importance of client-centered work in criminal justice reform, and how there are internships, fellowships, and other roles available to help formerly incarcerated people reenter the world.
People in New Orleans face many obstacles to achieving stability, such as limited resources, lack of access to technology, and financial barriers to expunging criminal records. These obstacles make it difficult for people to access housing, jobs, and other resources needed to break cycles of poverty and crime.
