San Francisco Children of Incarcerated Parents Partnership Blog: books/publications. Children need time to adjust to the separation caused by having a parent in prison.
But it takes more than time. As we have heard in their voices, children also need to make sense of what has happened to them and to their parent or parents. Because of this, they have many questions. Some of the questions they ask are straightforward. But sometimes their questions come out indirectly or in their challenging behavior.
Children who are present when a parent is arrested, especially young children, are usually not told where their parents are being taken, when they will be coming home, or why they have to go away. Our childhood experiences shape much of our adult lives. Here are questions that children whose parents are incarcerated often ask, along with suggestions about how to answer them. 1) Where is my Mom or Dad? Sooner or later children will realize the truth and know they have been lied to. 2) When is he or she coming home? 3) Why is she or he in jail or prison? 8) Is this my fault? SFCIPP. Since the Bill of Rights was first published in 2003, it has been widely distributed and used in venues around the country to educate the public, provoke discussion, and train service providers.
In 2005, SFCIPP launched the Rights to Realities Initiative, with the long-term goal of ensuring that every child in San Francisco whose parent is arrested and/or incarcerated is guaranteed the rights that follow. Our current work plan involves assessing the current status of each right in San Francisco, and the availability of model practices from around the nation; identifying which agencies might contribute to addressing each right; and working with those agencies to develop responsive policies and practices.
Our overarching aim is to ensure that every decision about criminal justice policy and practice takes into account the needs and hopes of children. New York Initiative for Children of Incarcerated Parents. More than 2.7 million children currently have a parent in prison or jail.
These children interact with multiple systems in communities, including the justice system, the child welfare system, the health care system, and the education system. This collaboration profile is meant to help community-based organizations, advocacy groups, and state and local government agencies that are interested in improving these systems’ responses to the needs of children of incarcerated parents. This collaboration profile describes an example of a successful initiative that brings together organizations from these multiple systems to improve outcomes for children of incarcerated parents.
