Rebuilding Hope: 100 Graduates Celebrate Healing at Nkamira Transit Center

Today, July 16, 2026, Prison Fellowship Rwanda (PFR), in collaboration with MINEMA, UNHCR, and valued partners, proudly celebrated the graduation of 100 participants who successfully completed the final three cohorts of the Community-Based Sociotherapy Program at Nkamira Transit Center.

The graduation ceremony was far more than a formal event—it was a moving celebration of resilience, courage, healing, and transformation. Through sociotherapy, participants have strengthened trust, rebuilt relationships, and developed the tools needed to overcome personal and community challenges.

Each graduate's journey represents the power of collective healing and the importance of creating safe spaces where people can share experiences, restore dignity, and build hope for the future.

We congratulate all graduates on this remarkable achievement and thank our partners for their continued commitment to supporting mental well-being, social cohesion, and lasting positive change.

Together, we are rebuilding hope and strengthening communities.

Today, June 29, 2026, we officially closed The Child’s Journey (TCJ) a Prison Fellowship signature’s program at PFR Head Office.
This journey has not just been a program—it has been a story of transformation.
From supporting just 50 children, TCJ grew to serve 1,680 children bringing hope to families affected by incarceration.
Through TCJ, children received: Education support and school materials, Access to healthcare and nutrition , Safe homes and protection , Mentorship and emotional support , Opportunities for their families to grow economically
One of the most touching moments has been reconnecting children with their parents through prison visits—restoring love, healing, and hope.
As we close, we reflect on the impact:
Stronger families. Healthier children. Brighter futures.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this life-changing journey.
The work continues—because every child deserves a chance to thrive. Fellowship International

Mahama Camp came alive with a joint celebration of World Refugee Day and the Day of the African Child, bringing together refugees, host communities, and key partners including PFR, UNHCR, The UN Refugee Agency in Rwanda, The Ministry in Charge of Emergency Management - Rwanda, and local authorities.
The event was a powerful reminder of the resilience, strength, and contributions of refugees, while reinforcing the importance of protecting and promoting the rights and well-being of children.
A key highlight of the celebration was the support provided by Programme for Refugees (PFR), in partnership with Mahama Sector, to 23 families who formalized their marriages through a legal ceremony. This initiative strengthens family unity, enhances legal protection for spouses and children, and promotes social cohesion within the community.
Together, we continue to build stronger, more inclusive communities where every child is protected and every family is empowered.
