Second Chances, Healing from Trauma, and Family Support — Rebuilding After Incarceration with William Freeman
Episode 41
Monday, 24 November, 2025
Send us a text“My foster child’s biological parents are incarcerated; how can I guide them through this difficult time?” “My child’s guard is up after trauma, how can I help take the walls down?” “How can I help a child transition out of Department of Juvenile Justice custody?” — When a child is in DJJ custody, they’re locked up, isolated, and scared. They aren’t just going through legal trouble, they’re carrying trauma and shame. It takes resilience, hope, support, and love to break free of the trauma they’ve faced. That’s why today Sophia Mills sits down with William Freeman, Founder and CEO of People of Purpose, an organization seeking to guide families as their loved ones come home from incarceration. He shares his experience going through the same thing and how he healed; as well as tips and strategies to help your child through the transition back into normality. Whether you or your child are going through this, know someone who is, or are recovering from any kind of trauma, William’s powerful testimony and advice can help you on your journey. As William told us, “Sometimes it’s not the trauma you expect. It’s abandonment, it’s silence, it’s love not shown the way a child needs to feel it.”💬Get In Touch:Send Us A Textparents@speakupforkidspbc.org🚨Need More Resources? 👉Visit Our Website 👉Check Out Our Socials: @speakupforkids 👉Are You Local To Palm Beach?
