"Getting out of prison is often assumed to be cause for celebration and a new
beginning. However, many women exiting prison face profound disadvantage,
isolation, poor mental and physical health and struggle finding housing.

Further complicating return to civil society is the fact some women are
released from prison without formal identification.

We worked alongside members of a not-for-profit group called Seeds of Affinity
– all women with lived experience of prison – to consider how a
technology-based solution may ease the transition from prison to community
life.

We then developed a prototype messenger chatbot that helps women in South
Australia through the steps involved in acquiring ID after exiting prison."
