Programs at INFACT IMPACT
Explore the transformative programs at INFACT IMPACT, where incarcerated parents learn valuable skills to maintain and strengthen bonds with their children. Through creative and engaging activities, we empower parents to stay connected, fostering meaningful relationships and personal growth even from a distance.
Handcrafted with love and care
Each parent will have the opportunity to tailor make a booklet for their child. We realize not everyone is an artist so blank coloring book pages will be made available for the parent to color in and glue to the pages of their booklet.
Whatever interest their child has will determine the images needed to print and color in.
With the assistance of the workshop facilitator, appropriate storylines will be written to hopefully help the child deal with any issues he or she may be dealing with in their life.
Creative Booklet Creation
At INFACT IMPACT, our Creative Booklet Creation program offers incarcerated parents a unique opportunity to actively engage with their children’s interests. Participants create personalized booklets by coloring in their children’s favorite characters from printable designs which they cut out and paste on to the blank pages. These booklets are not just simple gifts; they represent the time, effort, and heartfelt devotion of parents who are striving to maintain a presence in their children's lives. Through this creative process, parents develop a deeper understanding of their children's world, showcasing a commitment that transcends physical barriers and fosters emotional connections.
Parenting Workshops
Our Parenting Workshops provide a structured environment where incarcerated parents can learn essential parenting skills. These workshops are designed to address the unique challenges faced by absent parents, offering tools and strategies for effective communication, emotional support, and conflict resolution. By participating, parents gain valuable insights into nurturing their relationships with their children, allowing them to fulfill their roles more effectively even from afar. The workshops encourage self-reflection and personal growth, empowering parents to become positive role models for their children by demonstrating resilience and dedication.
Family Connection Programs
The Family Connection Programs at INFACT IMPACT are designed to rebuild and reinforce familial bonds that distance may strain. Through structured activities and guided interactions, incarcerated parents learn practical ways to stay involved in their children’s lives. The programs emphasize the importance of consistent communication and emotional availability, helping parents bridge the gap that incarceration can create. By fostering a sense of presence and involvement, these programs enable parents to contribute positively to their children's development, ensuring that they continue to play an integral role in their lives despite physical separation.
