Incarceration doesn’t just affect the individual—it impacts entire families and communities. Millions of people across the U.S. are directly or indirectly affected by the criminal justice system, and its consequences often extend far beyond the prison walls. Failsafe-ERA is an organization dedicated to changing this narrative by providing vital support to families and individuals impacted by incarceration. Their mission: to change lives, rebuild communities, and offer hope for a better future.
A Holistic Approach to Healing
Failsafe-ERA understands that true healing involves supporting both the incarcerated and their families. By offering a range of programs, they aim to break the cycle of incarceration and promote long-term success for everyone affected.
Key Failsafe-ERA Programs:
Family Support & Advocacy: Failsafe-ERA provides counseling, advocacy, and emotional support to families, helping them navigate the challenges of incarceration and stay connected with their loved ones.
Reentry Support: For individuals leaving prison, Failsafe-ERA offers job training, resume building, and mentorship to ease the transition back into society and reduce recidivism.
Youth Outreach: Working with schools and community organizations, Failsafe-ERA helps at-risk youth avoid involvement in the criminal justice system by providing mentorship and educational programs.
Mental Health Services: Recognizing the emotional toll of incarceration, Failsafe-ERA offers mental health counseling and group support to help individuals and families cope with trauma.
Impacting Lives, One Story at a Time
Failsafe-ERA’s programs have made a real difference in the lives of individuals and families. For example, Maria, a mother whose son was incarcerated, received support from Failsafe-ERA that helped her maintain a connection with her son during his imprisonment. After his release, Failsafe-ERA assisted him with reentry into society, and today, both are thriving.
