Mental Health 4: Prison

Cartoon Description

The cartoon shows twelve separate prison cell windows, in three rows of four, with a person behind each one. They are all looking through the bars of their cell whilst holding onto them. The people represent a cross section of society with a mix of gender, age, race and culture. Written across the wall below each row of windows is the following statement: “It is estimated that over 56,000 of the country’s prison inmates are affected by two or more mental health issues.”
