Stigma against people with an incarcerated parent can be subtle or it can be obvious—either way, it can lead to harm, and it doesn't have to be this way! ⁠ Let's begin normalizing this experience. It will help dissipate stigma and allow youth to move more freely in the world.

There are almost 3 million children with a parent in prison. We need your help finding them! We are currently enrolling youth NATIONWIDE (ages 8-18) in our April & summer online groups for children of incarcerated parents. Visit projectavary.org/onlineprogram to learn more or to apply!

Families bear numerous burdens when a loved one becomes incarcerated, including trauma, stigma, financial strains, shame & isolation. Check out these slides from projectavary showing some of the impact of incarceration on #children & #families. Anything missing? Let us know!

SPREAD THE WORD!!!! We still have SIX spaces available in our April online support groups for children of incarcerated parents. This program is available NATIONWIDE for youth ages 8-18 and is free for all kids. Visit projectavary.org/onlineprogram to learn more or apply.

We are enrolling youth with incarcerated parents in our Sept/Oct groups. This is our LARGEST session to date, and we need your help finding youth who could use this incredible and supportive program. Youth nationwide are encouraged to apply 👉 projectavary.org/onlineprogram
