The Formerly Incarcerated College Graduates Network (FICGN) is inviting members of the higher education in prison field to participate in a series titled HEP Orientation Tuesdays: Learning & Feedback Sessions this winter.
These sessions are designed for HEP practitioners to engage with a module from FICGN’s HEP Orientation—a training developed to support faculty and staff who are new to working inside carceral settings. Equally important, we are seeking feedback from the field. We are eager to learn what resonates, what feels missing, and what could be improved so that this resource is useful to HEP programs nationwide.
Each session will include:
-
A brief presentation of one of seven orientation modules
-
Guided discussion and feedback from participants
-
Space to share insights from your own practice and experience
Your perspectives will directly inform refinements to this orientation as we continue developing it for the HEP field.
Session Dates (all Tuesdays at 11am ET):
-
January 20 - Education on the Inside
-
January 27 - TBA
-
February 3 - TBA
-
February 10 - TBA
-
February 17 - TBA
-
February 24 - TBA

March 3 - TBA
Registration links will be shared weekly via RCHEP and the Higher Education in Prison Listserv. Each session is capped at 20 participants. Practitioners at all stages of program development are encouraged to participate. Participants may attend one or more sessions, and registrants will be selected to ensure a fair and diverse group.
