MISSION

Increase learning and literacy for children of an incarcerated female parent/caregiver while strengthening the bond between child and parent/caretaker during a potentially lengthy separation.

KEY PARTNERS

Minnesota Correctional Facility, Shakopee, MN.

COMMUNITY IMPACT

Between the Lines provides children of incarcerated female parent/caregivers an audio recording of their parent/caregiver reading a book to them, a personal message from their parent/caregiver and a new, wrapped, copy of the book. Junior League volunteers record the incarcerated parent/caregiver, prepare and send the special book/message packages for delivery to the children.
