Strengths & Opportunities

  • Motivated to care for children once released
  • Buy-in from non-incarcerated parent.
  • Providing tangible supports for the parent who is not incarcerated.

Strengths

  • Sustained purpose that’s meaningful – agency over one’s legacy = freedom
  • Promotes healthy attachment during a difficult time.
  • Opportunities to process and model healthy coping mechanisms with children.
  • Parenting shows people’s humanity
  • Led by an outside organization. Minimal contact/interaction with custodial staff.
