12pm – 12.45pm ICT, 26 February 2025 ‐ 45 mins

Workshop Session

Funeral streaming technology offers a compassionate approach to supporting inmate mental health, allowing them to virtually attend family funerals in a secure, supervised setting. This innovative solution helps inmates manage grief, reducing behavioral incidents by up to 30% and contributing to safer correctional environments. By fostering emotional stability and promoting trauma-informed care, funeral streaming encourages engagement in rehabilitative programs, ultimately supporting successful reentry and lowering recidivism rates.
This workshop is designed for correctional leaders, technology specialists, and mental health professionals, providing practical guidance, case studies, and strategies for implementing funeral streaming technology.
Attendees will learn about logistical, security, and partnership considerations to make this service accessible. By enabling inmates to maintain family connections, facilities can cultivate a more rehabilitative
process.
