To support the Teen Program Coordinator and provide transportation for prison visits and enrichment activities for the adolescent children of inmates at this women’s prison. The program is designed to preserve and strengthen the family ties between incarcerated mothers and their children. Staff and volunteers address the youths’ educational needs to help them stay in school and provide recreation and counseling services. They conduct parenting classes for the mothers and help them stay connected with their children and their teachers and guardians.  This grant enables the program to serve families in upstate communities, such as Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse, as well as those from New York City.
