In this episode of Phir Se, we step into the life of social workers from Prayas who take us inside the realities of working with their clients, i.e. people caught in India’s criminal justice system. From prisons, courts and local shelters for women and/or children, to family reunions, finding jobs, getting documents and being there when their clients have no one else to turn to. They share the cases that stayed with them, the emergencies that followed them home, and what it really takes to help someone start all over again.
