After a long season of cookie sales, the Girl Scouts of Louisiana East brought joy to mothers who are incarcerated at the Orleans Parish Justice Center.
After a nearly three-year hiatus from consistent in-person visit to Coffee Creek Correctional Facility, the Girl Scouts Beyond Bars program is ready to connect daughters with their incarcerated mothers once again.
Girl Scouts Beyond Bars has supported daughters of incarcerated mothers with twice-monthly prison visits and specialized programming since 1992. The Girl Scouts of Eastern Pennsylvania was an early adopter of the program, which seeks to blunt the documented impacts of parental incarceration on children.
