ABOUT THE HOUSING PROBLEM FOR PAROLEES
AFTER ORANGE #THEPRISONPROJECT
Started as a documentation project as Cassandra followed Brittany out of prison in 2013. Cassandra started discovering the housing problem, especially for women who were up for parole with nowhere to go. In October, 2016, Cassandra opened After Orange: Halfway Home. Although we were not able to keep that home open, Cassandra and Brittany have partnered up and are on a mission to open a licensed home in Las Vegas.
After following many of these women out, just to see them end back up in prison, I started following the housing problem more closely in Las Vegas. This is when I opened a home for women being released. I called the house 'After Orange: Halfway Home'. Only a portion of this footage has been released.
