In this episode, Dr. Apryl Alexander discusses her path into forensic psychology and her work with justice-involved youth. The conversation explores polyvictimization, the abuse-to-prison pipeline, school discipline, racial disparities, trauma-informed treatment, and the limitations of focusing only on individual behavior. Dr. Alexander challenges forensic psychologists to consider children’s lived environments, systemic inequities, and opportunities for prevention and advocacy.
