  • Provide tools and language to help young children (ages 2-8) cope with and understand divorce at an age-appropriate level.
  • Aid families in communicating and expressing feelings around divorce.

Little Children, Big Challenges: Incarceration is designed to:
  • Support, comfort, and reduce anxiety, sadness and confusion that young children (ages 3-8) may experience during the incarceration of a parent.
  • Provide at-home caregivers with strategies, tips, and age-appropriate language they can use to help communicate with their children about incarceration.
