What is the Prisoner Visitation and Support organization?
What are some of the issues impacting trans prisoners in this political time?
In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, anti-racism educator, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill interviews two Prisoner Visitation and Support board members, whose mission is to provide inmates of federal prisons with visitors. They discussed self-care when helping people navigate a system that can cause harm.
Shazad Carbaidwala is a catalyst for transformation, a former professional bodybuilder leveraging his journey from speaker, Prisoner visitation and support board member, author, project manager, entrepreneur/business owner, humanitarian, coach, and law enforcement official to empower individuals worldwide. Central to his life's mission is the art of helping people in any capacity, where Shazad's impact is felt most profoundly.
Linda Roberts discovered the non-profit organization Prisoner Visitation and Support (PVS) and has been visiting predominantly transgender inmates monthly at the Coleman Federal Correctional Complex in Coleman, FL for over 4 years. Recognizing her background, she currently serves as Treasurer and Board member of that organization.
