“…Prior studies have shown that older adults in prison experience both earlier and later life trauma, such as being a victim of or witness to family, community or structural violence. Other types of traumatic experiences include childhood abuse, neglect, exploitation, natural or human made disasters, war, the unexpected or expected death of a loved one, widowhood, and receiving a serious physical or mental health diagnosis (Maschi & Aday, 2014; Maschi & Baer, 2013; Maschi, Viola, Morgen, & Koskinen, 2013). Additionally, many incarcerated and formerly incarcerated older adults report a history of social/structural trauma, such as living in poverty and financial stress, homelessness, incarceration, separation or divorce, sudden unemployment, caregiver stress, historical or cultural discrimination, stigma, or oppression (Maschi & Aday, 2014; Maschi, Viola, Morgen, & Koskinen, 2013).…”
