The IF Project

The IF Project If there was something someone could have said or done that would have changed the path that led you

The IF Project is a collaboration of currently- and formerly-incarcerated adults, community partners, and law enforcement focused on holistic intervention and the reduction and prevention of incarceration and recidivism. Our work is inspired by and built upon people sharing their personal life experiences around incarceration. Since 2008, The IF Project has collected thousands responses to the “IF


question,” and the answers have inspired a full array of prevention, intervention, and
awareness programs and a full-length feature documentary film. We offer intensive writing workshops, personal reentry preparation (PREP) courses, health and wellness classes, and mentorship opportunities to currently-incarcerated women to help them reflect on their lives, reconcile with their pasts, and create plans for their futures. Upon release, IF stands by our members with specialized case management to provide individualized support as they search for jobs or go back to school, find housing and transportation, seek out behavioral healthcare, and reunite with their families. Most of all, IF gives the emotional support and encouragement our participants need to keep going, even when things are difficult. The deep personal relationships we have with our members and our concern for their human rights continually push us to advocate for them in the community and at every level of government.

💜 Healing. Support. Connection. Empowerment. 💜

The IF Project is proud to provide supportive services through our HSD-funded Gun Safety Program for women and families impacted by gun violence.

As a gender-responsive organization, we understand that the effects of violence extend far beyond the immediate incident. Survivors, family members, caregivers, and community members often face emotional, financial, and practical challenges while navigating their healing journey.

Through this program, participants may receive:
✨ Resource navigation and case management
✨ Peer support and mentorship
✨ Healing Justice Circles
✨ Emotional wellness and resilience-building support
✨ Referrals to housing, behavioral health, employment, and community resources
✨ Limited supportive services to help reduce barriers to stability

Our goal is simple: to create safe spaces where healing can happen, connections can be strengthened, and women can access the support they need to move forward.

If you or someone you know has been impacted by gun violence, we are here to help.

Today is Mother’s Day.

Today, we honor mothers in all their strength, complexity, and resilience—including those rebuilding their lives after incarceration.

At The IF Project, we see mothers doing the hard, courageous work of healing from trauma, reconnecting with their children, and creating new paths forward. We see women choosing growth, accountability, and hope, every single day.

We also know this journey cannot happen alone.

This Mother’s Day, you can stand with a mother who is working to rebuild her life and her family.

Your support provides safe spaces to heal, tools to navigate trauma, and a community that believes in her future.

Make a gift today in honor of a mother in your life, and in support of a mother working toward a second chance.
