About the Keynote: Tamra Oman is a human services program coordinator at the Wisconsin Resource Center; a mental health treatment facility classified as a prison. Her focus over the last 10 years has been working with clients in the criminal justice system with addiction and mental health challenges. She has been an AODA Counselor for the past 8 years and during that time has also been a contracted agent facilitating anger management and domestic violence groups within DOC facilities as well as reentry programming. She has created programming being used in correctional facilities and continues to seek ways to be of service. She has been on many committees and boards in the Madison community and is a co-founder of the non-profit SISTER HOUSE. Ms. Oman brings a unique perspective based on her own experiences as a youth with similar challenges. She has spent the years since her own incarceration and release from prison developing relationships, seeking education, providing presentations, creating relevant programming, educating agencies, individuals, and systems about the journey of addiction and imprisonment. She has been an advocate for others who have been and are in similar situations as her own.
