PAST & PRESENT PROGRAMS.

The Foundation’s programs and actions are specifically designed to break the cycle of the school-to-prison culture within our educational and criminal justice institutions, as well as communities.

Since 2014, we have served hundreds of children and trained a cadre of professionals dedicated to this work. Our programs are kept affordable for youth through your generous contributions.

With more than 30 years of research, we know why we have a robust prison system. We also understand what can be done to help our youth who have been trapped in the criminal legal system or harmed by its effects.

The Wrap-Up

“The Wrap-Up is a safe, open, and honest space for middle and high schoolers to meet up once a week and talk about their experiences in school and in their personal lives. Check-ins will prioritize mental health and well-being, and youth will be able to lead and plan fun activities for each session.  Interested in revitalizing this program? Your donation can help!
