About This Show

From petty drug dealers to second-degree murderers, these women all have one thing in common: they're mothers. Moms Behind Bars takes you behind the barbed wire to meet incarcerated and recently-released moms, exploring how these women struggle to maintain relationships with their children from behind prison walls. These tales of suffering, regret and redemption range from a 28-year-old mother who is raising her baby in a prison cell, to a grandmother whose grown children are fighting for a better way of life for their kids.
