Youth Group (360G-ocf-a061600000jr5kP)

The project aims to provide a targeted, weekly, safe, group for children who have a parent in prison to pursue interests, opportunities to experience success, increase children’s self-efficacy, self-esteem and develop support networks within their community. The project will use sport to break down barriers and encourage peer support in order to reduce the stigma of parental imprisonment. Which should enable children to explore feelings and emotions attached to this intensely traumatic experience and empower children to consider their aspirations and goals to promote positive outcomes in both the short and long term.
