Your Support Has a Lasting Impact on Moms and Children
What if you were permanently defined by your very worst choice on your very worst day? Women exiting incarceration face a tough road ahead. Over 90% have endured extensive trauma during their developmental years. 80% are mothers of minor girls and boys. With no money, no ID and nowhere to go, it’s no wonder that recently released women go back to what is familiar. Nearly 1 out of 2 women released from prison return to incarceration within 2 years.
But with the CWIT's support, only 16% recidivate within 2 years. CWIT addresses all the critical factors: housing stability, family supports, nutritious food, long-delayed medical and dental care, transportation, treatment for substance issues, mental health services, and that all-important job skills training, resulting in 83% of eligible women landing jobs, despite their record.
Your support is an investment in the next generation. It is fact that nearly everyone who goes to prison will eventually be released. With your support, CWIT can help women identify the root causes that landed them in prison. Your support goes directly to the heart of the matter, so mom has the tools to do better, and her children have a chance to grow up and do good in the world.
