dc.description.notesThis paper by the Australian Centre for the Study of Sexual Assault (ACSSA) deals with the growing number of incarcerated women in Australia's prisons, and the issue of their history of sexual abuse and how prison may be responsible for women's re-traumatisation.<br/ >[Appended From Merge Migration]<br/ >In the last 20 years the numbers of women entering Australian prisons have risen dramatically. Many of these women have a history of sexual assault traumatisation from child sexual abuse as well as physical and sexual abuse they have encountered as adults. The prison system can often exacerbate trauma for female criminal offenders with a trauma history. This paper explores the prison as a possible site of re-traumatisation. The reasoning behind this is that prisons are built on an ethos of power, surveillance and control, yet trauma sufferers require safety in order to begin healing. A trauma-informed approach may offer an alternative to delivering a less traumatic prison environment and experience for female criminal offenders with a history of sexual abuse and assault.en
