• Treasure ValChildren'sen's Relief Nursery (TVCRN)

  • ​There is a combination of services designed to help families with infants and toddlers who have gone through difficulties. Many of these difficulties may be an everyday experience for an adult dealing with the stress of living. Still, for a child, it can cause issues in their social-emotional development. At Treasure Valley Children's Relief Nursery (TVCRN), we are specially trained to provide your child with therapeutic care. We are fueled by community support and volunteers, seeking to create communities that care for and are invested in young children and families.​

• Dad's 4 Life

  ​This program has a support group that holds meetings to encourage pro-social behavior and emphasizes the importance of family connections. Dad's 4 Life support group meets twice a month to provide support to AIC fathers from AIC fathers. This allows time to educate fathers while preparing for release, where they can implement the skills they have acquired during group. It also allows AIC fathers who have a long sentence left to learn to be a father while incarcerated. Each father has the opportunity to prepare and present the lesson to review in/to the group. Some examples of topics covered are Parent Involvement, Legal/Visitation, Healthier Balance/Family harmony, Values/Self-esteem (of children), and Discipline Versus Punishment. They are able to complete several activities to send home to their children.​
