JDI Survivor Council Joe Booth was sexually assaulted repeatedly while serving time in prison. In this video, Joe and Jessica Seipel, the rape crisis advocate who helped him heal after his assaults, talk about the life-saving support that advocates can provide to incarcerated survivors through written correspondence. Today, Joe helps JDI educate advocates and corrections officials nationwide about sexual abuse in detention and how to work with other survivors in need. The video was produced by JDI with support from the Department of Justice’s Office on Violence Against Women.
