| Sumario: | Abstract: This special report aims to update information on a particularly vulnerable
and invisible population of children and youth: children and adolescents with
incarcerated parents or guardians. From now on, this group will be referred
to as CIP for “children with incarcerated parents.” The Church World Service
Office for Latin America and the Caribbean joins the Argentina Social Debt
Observatory’s Program of the Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA)
in carrying out this initiative.
Unlike the document published in 2019 (“Infancias y Encarcelamiento.
Condiciones de vida de niñas, niños y adolescentes cuyos padres o familiares
están privados de la libertad en la Argentina” ISBN 978-987-620- 381-4), this
document focuses on several different groups of children. We examine the
experiences of children living in households with one or more members currently
incarcerated; children who have never experienced familial incarceration but
live in poor households; and children who have never experienced familial
incarceration and whose families are not poor. This comparative analysis allows
us to identify and examine the social inequalities that children face as their
vulnerabilities accumulate. |
