Families of loved ones incarcerated joined legal and mental health advocates Saturday on TSU's campus.

SUGGESTED:"Now it's not a silent epidemic," Griffin said at the forum. "I'm glad that I spoke up now."

Sarah R. Guidry, dean of the TSU School of Law, said it's important for community members to know their legal rights. "It's so many solutions out there, but no one knows about them," said Shalanda Kent, a mental health advocate. "Or no one's coming to make it front and center. We're doing something over here, you're doing something over there, and we're not doing anything together."
