Support Children with Parents in Prison - NLS Family Strengthening Programme

When a parent is incarcerated, children often face separation, stigma, and instability in their lives. Many are cared for by relatives who step up selflessly but are stretched thin and struggle to meet every need. That’s where New Life Stories steps in.

Through our Family Strengthening Programme, we support children, parents, and caregivers in rebuilding trust, healing broken bonds, and breaking the cycle of intergenerational incarceration. Our approach focuses on reconnection and providing a sense of trust and belonging rather than merely correcting behaviour. This motivates parents to stay out of prison, and prevents children from repeating a cycle.

Your donation helps us create brighter childhoods and more resilient families through befriending, weekly reading sessions, learning journeys, workshops, and plenty more resources that restore hope and joy.

Safe, loved and seen: that's what we believe each and every child deserves. Even when life takes a sudden, difficult turn, it is our job to remind every child that they are not forgotten.
