Some of the strongest children are carrying burdens they never asked for.
When a parent is incarcerated, the sentence doesn’t just affect one person—it affects an entire family. Behind every statistic is a child who may be navigating loneliness, confusion, grief, or the feeling that they’ve been forgotten.
That’s why Growing & Coping Together (GCT) was founded—to ensure that children with incarcerated parents and their families have access to the support, encouragement, and resources they deserve. Every child deserves a safe place to grow, heal, and be reminded that their future is not defined by their circumstances.
At GCT, we believe no family should have to face these challenges alone. Through support, advocacy, mentorship, and community, we strive to help children build resilience and hope for a brighter future.
The best part? Every service provided by Growing & Coping Together is completely FREE. Financial barriers should never prevent a child or family from receiving the care, support, and encouragement they need.
💙 Every child deserves hope.
💙 Every family deserves support.
💙 Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive.
Together, we can break the cycle, strengthen families, and remind every child that they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.
If you or someone you know could benefit from our services—or if you’d like to support our mission—connect with Growing & Coping Together (GCT). Together, we are growing stronger, coping together, and building brighter futures.
