Why it’s important to help SHINE for Kids
SHINE for Kids is a not-for-profit organisation assisting children of prisoners and their families to overcome the multitude of hurdles that are presented to them when a parent goes to prison. Education, finances, social stigma and simply holding the family together can suddenly seem like impossible challenges. This time in a child’s life can dramatically affect their entire future. Aside from the personal cost, there is an impact on society – children of prisoners are statistically 5 times more likely to become offenders themselves. So it’s really in everyone’s interests to ensure that these kids and their families receive all the support and guidance they need to get through a very difficult time. SHINE for Kids is the only organisation in Australia specifically set up to provide this. We operate a comprehensive range of services in prisons and communities throughout NSW and Victoria and in the ACT. In 2012 we’ve celebrated 30 years of operation.
