For Parents

 

Where permitted, unCUFFED desires to support parents and families of incarcerated juveniles. We can provide updates on their children’s status in jail. We form prayer groups and church visits with the parents and help to ease their worries and concerns.

For Lawyers

Because a part of unCUFFED’s mission is to get to know youth who are charged as adults, we can share our experiences with a youth’s behavior and character we’ve witnessed as we’ve worked with them. Rules vary from institution to institution, but when permitted we work with Public Defenders and private lawyers. If unCUFFED staff or volunteers have worked closely with a youth during their time in the facility, we are willing to write a letter for their transfer hearing or sentencing hearing or to testify on their behalf.
