Katie Piper travels across America visiting prisons and jails with very different approaches to pregnancy and motherhood behind bars.


Katie visits Cobb County Jail in Georgia and meets pregnant women who face being separated from their babies just hours after giving birth.

Katie heads to a facility in Texas to visit pregnant women and mothers struggling with drug addiction.

Katie travels to the American Bible Belt where around three quarters of adults identify as Christian, and visits a faith-based alternative to jail that supports pregnant women and mothers.

Katie travels to Illinois, where 1 in 20 children have a parent who's locked up. She visits Decatur Prison, a facility that allows mothers to keep their babies with them behind bars.

Katie travels to Chicago where 8 in 10 women locked up are mothers. Learn about a sheriff keeping pregnant women out of jail and a programme keeping imprisoned women in touch with their kids.
