Description
Community Solutions serves those at greatest risk for school drop out; substance abuse and other delinquent behaviors--the children of prisoners; forgotten victims of crime. Our mission is to strengthen community by strengthening those among the most disenfranchised and under-served to achieve the highest potential to become valuable and valued members of the mainstream community. Using an eclectic holistic approach, the children are engaged in life enriching activities promoting healthy lifestyles in 5 skill building areas: Academics; Community Service; Cultural Awareness; Leadership and Recreation. Outreach and support is provided to their caregivers and other family members, including the returning incarcerated loved one. The agency also endeavors to develop awareness of the unique needs of the prison family through public presentations and the annual hosting of the National Prisoner's Family Conference.
