Welcome to JustKids
When a parent goes to prison, kids pay a price. For more than half, that price will one day include a jail term of their own. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
With the right supports, children with a parent involved in the justice system can enjoy the same prospects for a bright future as any other child. JustKids seeks to inspire the creation of those supports across Canada.
We believe that while bars may stand between kids and their parents, they shouldn’t stand between kids and their future. And we know that together, we can break the cycle of justice system involvement.
