Abordaje del consumo en cárceles.

Laura Ruiz -

Trabajando en cárceles se puede observar una gran problemática de consumo. De inicio antes de la privacion de libertad y a edades muy tempranas, en la niñez o adolescencia. Casi siempre han habido diferentes motivos que derivaron en ello, una familia con dificultades, con privaciones del tipo afectivas o del materiales y luego un adolescente que queda cada vez más al margen, viviendo una historia a todo ritmo, sin poder ver que eso que está eligiendo marcará su rumbo por mucho tiempo probablemente. Aprendiendo conductas que quedaran instaladas y que si más tarde quisiera desaprenderlas le...
