Women Mentoring Women

 /files/images/100_0139.JPG    A key element of our reentry program is the development of positive relationships through which the women can receive encouragement, acceptance and accountability. We train our volunteers to develop a positive relationship as a source of continual support and encouragement for the women. This relathionship begins while the women are incarcerated and continues through transition.

Women are valuable and called to many roles in life; wife, mother, daughter, friend, sister, employee, and teacher of their children. With women mentoring women, positive role models are available to train and teach them through a healthy positive relationship that will nurture and guide them. Mentors are women with experience and wisdom they want to share with other women. The mentoring relationship begins while still incarcerated and continues after release.
