Two good videos 1 The Dharma Brothers - at the Boston Trauma conference last year they discussed Vipasanna use in prison and showed clips of the Dharma brothers. I thought it was a good video. I cannot remember what prison system they were in. But the experts in trauma were a part of this system. 2. It's more Expensive to do Nothing Video about the Prison System Dr. Bruce Perry, Douglas Marlow excellent Documentary.....About how the prison system is costing us. I think these are two good resources but if you see the Dharma brothers contact the video producer and the other researcher I cannot remember the name right now but you can learn about how they used vipassana in prison. I want to go to a vipassana retreat i think it would be excellent.

Bob - You might get some tips from the Juvenile Justice Resource page from the NCTSN.
