For
more than 40 years, “Sesame Street” has been helping kids tackle tough topics
like death and divorce. With one in 28 kids having a parent behind bars, the
show will now be tackling the topic of understanding jail time. NBC’s Erika
Hill reports.
The
Sesame Workshop says it created the “Little Children, Big Challenges:
Incarceration” initiative, an online tool kit intended to help kids with a
parent in prison find support and comfort, and provide families with strategies
and tips to talk to their children about incarceration.
