About this Opportunity

 

Women’s Storybook Project of Texas connects children to their incarcerated mothers through the joy of literature. The primary goal of WSP is to reduce the rate of re-incarceration among incarcerated mothers by strengthening the mother- child bond through literature. This literature project requires volunteers to travel to Texas female prisons to record incarcerated mothers as they read stories to their children. The recordings provide a chance for children to hear their mother’s voice while they are away. Connecting the children and mothers helps provide a reason for the mothers to work hard not to return to prison.

 

We are looking for dedicated volunteers to serve mothers in Downtown Houston and Dayton area. A volunteer must be a female of 18 years and above.

Once trained volunteers are asked to sign up and volunteer at least twice a year.

 

 Volunteering with the Women's Storybook Project offers a unique chance to empower incarcerated mothers and nurture family bonds through the magic of storytelling.

Join us in this important mission to create positive change and support families in need.
