• More than 15,000 children in Minnesota have an incarcerated mother or father; they’re among the highest at-risk and least visible populations of children
• Incarceration is a generational problem within families. Statistics show that 60-80 percent of children with an incarcerated parent will themselves wind up in the criminal justice system
• Today, one in every 100 American adults is in prison-the highest incarceration rate in our nation’s history!

All funds raised will support Parenting With Purpose’s Mentoring for Life Change program. MLC provides mentoring for youth ages 5-25 with an incarcerated or released parent. The primary aim of MLC is to break the cycle of crime within families and guide kids to a healthier, productive and overall better life.
