Jennifer D. Luther

Jennifer D. Luther is an author, master trainer and consultant of best practices in corrections. She works across numerous jurisdictions to implement such practices throughout the continuum of care, supporting agencies to translate research into practice.

She was drawn to correctional rehabilitation as a result of experiencing the pain and trauma of victimization. Following a life-saving surgery, Ms. Luther spent several years in physical therapy learning to use her hand again, while working to heal emotionally. In an effort to understand the sources of violence, Jennifer began volunteering and soon discovered that such behavior is normalized in many communities Ms. Luther decided that if she wasn’t a part of the solution, she was a part of the problem by default.
