Parenting in Prison

We help parents in prison improve their parenting skills and communicate better with their children. The seven-week Parenting in Prison programme is run in prisons by our family workers.

The programme helps parents:

• • answer children’s questions
  • understand the likely effects of separation
  • reintegrate after release (with a follow up in person and another over the phone).

Where to start:

• Contact one of the Family Works sites listed below, either for yourself or on behalf of someone you know.
• A family worker will talk you through the process and can refer you to a case manager.
