Islamic Circles in association with Muslim Youth Network presents:
MUSLIM YOUTHS IN PRISON
Date: Sunday 7th November 2004
Time: 11am - 1pm
Venue: Froud Centre, 1 Toronto Avenue, Manor Park, London, E12 5JF
Did you know that a high number of young Muslims, currently 9% of
the Muslim population are in prison? What should we do to address
this as a community? Do we care enough to do something about it or
are we waiting for our own relatives to go behind bars first before
this unfortunate reality registers in our brains?
Britain's first online support and information channel for Muslim
youth (www.MuslimYouth.net (http://www.MuslimYouth.net)) will be introducing us to an innovative
platform whereby young Muslims profile their experiences and coping
mechanisms so as to help others suffering the same problems. The
network intends to provide support to young, vulnerable, marginalised
and disenfranchised Muslims on various social issues and concerns,
such as addiction, bullying, mental health, teenage prostitution, etc.
In particular, the issue of Muslim youths in prison will be looked
at, along with the challenges, stereotypes and prejudices that young
Muslim prisoners face whilst inside prison and afterwards when they
try to re-integrate back into civil society.
Please support our brothers and sisters in prison during this
blessed month when the rewards for actions are multiplied many
times over.
