Hospital/Clinic

The Center for Prisoner Health and Human Rights was established in 2005 to act as a hub for the innovative correctional health research and programming occurring at The Miriam Hospital and other research hospitals in RI and around the country. The Center's mission is to improve the health and human rights of justice-involved populations through education, advocacy, and research. Today, the Center's work falls into three core areas: 1) raising awareness at the national and state levels about the healthcare challenges of incarcerated and other justice-involved populations; 2) providing education and training opportunities for college, graduate, and medical students, and encouraging student engagement and leadership in justice issues; and 3) collaborating with local justice system stakeholders to identify and support projects that respond to the intersection of incarceration, recidivism, and public health in the State of Rhode Island.
