'I Am Not My Crime' Podcast
PACCOA are delighted to be able to share Dr Suzanne Reich's latest podcast. 

Dr Reich is the Program Director and Senior Lecturer (Criminology and Criminal Justice) at the University of Southern Queensland and is also a valued member of PACCOA. 

Dr Reich is very excited to share this podcast she produced with Spencer Howson. 

From the Website: 

"I Am Not My Crime" features courageous people telling you the story about the crimes they have committed and their journey to redemption. As you make your way through this first season you will notice a couple of common themes: the importance of other people, opportunities for employment, and being welcomed back into society are what really matter for supporting change and a life lived differently. "I Am Not My Crime" has been produced to help you understand that for many people it is their circumstances that led them down the path to offending behaviour and that what somebody has done in the past is not an indication of who they are today.

Presented by University of Southern Queensland Criminologist Dr Suzanne Reich, each episode concludes with the latest research about why people commit the crime or crimes that have been discussed."

Dr Reich says the best way for people to follow the release of the upcoming episodes is to either subscribe to the respective podcast platforms to receive notifications, follow her on Twitter, or both.
