The Jesuit Centre for Faith and Justice is launching its report on the experiences of LGBT people in prison in Ireland. The report, entitled ‘Developing Inside: Transforming Prison for Young Adults’, proposes a new approach to the unique needs of young adults in prison.

The report provides in-depth analysis of the unique needs of 18 – 24 year olds in prison, examines the current reality, and outlines proposals for change. The report calls for radical policy reform on how we imprison young adults.
