PrisonKids Kenya is dedicated to creating safe, supportive environments and fostering physical, emotional, and cognitive development for children living in prisons with their mothers in Kenya. They have established a daycare facility at Nakuru Women’s Prison in addition to providing essential supplies for all those incarcerated in Nakuru, Kericho and Kitale Women’s prisons. In collaboration with the women’s ministry at Seventh Day Adventist Church, Egerton, PrisonKids conducts play and learn sessions at Nakuru and Kitalle Women prisons. These sessions provide socialization opportunities for children living in prison and age-appropriate care and upbringing. Working closely with social workers, PrisonKids facilitates ongoing communication and visits with children’s families of origin, ensuring continuity and preparing children for life after prison.
