Many men are lost in the prison system with no way out, and their families become lost in the system as well. This is a societal problem that can no longer be overlooked. Building Families Together Inc. was founded March 2016 by founder and CEO Sherry Green. This nonprofit was born from the desire, grit, and determination of her passion to help fight the overcrowding in prisons, recidivism, and to assist with prison reform. Her vision is magnified through the Corporation's mission to help returning citizens and their families become educated about the hardships the father will face when returning home. Her desire is to prevent generational imprisonment within families, broken homes, and recidivism.Our goal Is to break the cycle of incarceration by implementing initiatives that ensures a quality future, life and foundation for fathers, mothers, and their children. By the implementation of reentry services, this under-served population will be provided with the assistance that is in dire need.We strive to help fathers and their families who have been impacted by incarceration. We provide services in the following areas:• Re-entry support• Spousal support• Mentoring for fathers: guiding men toward self-improvement where they think they cannot improve for children: providing critical developmental support through mentoring for children with incarcerated fathers• Donations Providing families with clothing & household items Providing incarcerated fathers with hygienic items• Community AwarenessHow Can You Help?There are many ways to provide support to our organization, and by extension, to the community we serve.
