Description
Project Avary’s mission is to cultivate a community of support for children whose parents are imprisoned or otherwise involved with the criminal justice system. Avary targets the neglected population of pre-adolescent children who have not yet entered the cycles of violence and incarceration, and we work with them through young adulthood. Year-round programming gives the children ongoing opportunities to work and play cooperatively within a consistent community of peers and adults; to learn how to manage anger and resolve conflict; and to discover and develop unique personal strengths. Avary offers structure, a network of positive relationships, and experiences that promote the resiliency children need to thrive in life.
