Girl Scouts Beyond Bars: a unique opportunity for forensic psychiatric nursing.
The interplay of victim and perpetrator roles experienced between daughters and their mothers provides for intricately complex interactions within a family and the community. Unique opportunities exist for forensic psychiatric nurses to articulate their nursing roles against health promotion and illness prevention programs for incarcerated women and their families. Participation in community-based projects allows forensic psychiatric nurses to observe and respond to the total environment of offenders and their families.
