THE CRUSHING DEBT FROM PAYING CHILD SUPPORT IN PRISON

THE CRUSHING DEBT FROM PAYING CHILD SUPPORT IN PRISON "Of the 2.2 million people incarcerated in the United States, about half are parents, and at least 1 in 5 has a child support obligation. For most, the debt will keep piling up throughout their imprisonment: By law or by practice, child support agencies in much of the country consider incarceration a form of 'voluntary impoverishment.'” [WaPo]
