Many women have become a large part of the California Penal
System. There are women of all ages and races. Mothers,
daughters, sisters, wives even grandmothers as most come
from broken homes where incest, physical and emotional
abuse, rape, alcoholism, drug use, prostitution, theft and
the overall exploitation of life are an everyday way of
living. To know something different is out of the ordinary,
it isn't real life. TIME ON THE INSIDE takes readers vividly
into the walls of Central California Women's Facility—CCWF,
the largest women's prison in the United States with a stop
through Sybil Brand Institute—SBI, formerly the largest
women's jail in California where conditions at this jail
were not fit for a rodent. There are many struggles and
challenges faced daily behind the walls. Conditions can be
abusive, violent and even deadly; however most often there
is a sense of comfortableness that leads one into a realm of
institutionalism, which can determine ones future.
