Parent Re-Entry Program

Parenting education, family reintegration and visitation is provided at the New Mexico Women’s Correctional Facility in Grants, New Mexico.  The program utilizes a gender responsive, trauma informed curriculum that covers the effects of parental incarceration, substance abuse, domestic violence, child development, appropriate expectations and positive parenting.  Upon completion of the parenting class, the women are eligible to receive therapeutic visitation with their children. There is a trailer on the grounds of the prison which was specially designed to provide a safe and healthy place for the children to visit their mother within a home environment. The families of the women in the community receive home visitation and case management resources to support their family while the mother is incarcerated.  The program continues to work with the mothers, once they are released to help support their transition into the community.

Metropolitan Detention Center

PB&J provides a therapeutic environment for children and families to engage in developmentally appropriate, interactive activities while they are waiting to have a visit at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC).  The children are provided with snacks and the families are screened for any case management needs with referrals given for appropriate services.  The staff is trained to coach and model age appropriate play and adult/child interactions with attention to issues resulting from parental incarceration.  

Juvenile Community Corrections Program (JCC)
The Juvenile Community Corrections program is a program funded by Children Youth and Families Department.    The JCC program is a unique approach to working with incarcerated teen parents and their families.  The program provides services that are gender responsive, culturally competent and based on the client’s individualized needs.   The program emphasizes on intensive individual parenting skills, parenting groups, therapeutic supervised family visits and intensive home visiting upon release. 

Youth Development Inc. (YDI)-Face Forward Parenting Class
