The absence of a mother is a wound that cuts deep into the heart of a child, leaving a mark that may never fully heal.
For these children, their mother’s incarceration is a sentence on its own, a prison of emotions that leaves them feeling lost, alone, and adrift in a world that no longer makes sense.
They long for her embrace, her words of encouragement, and her unwavering love, but all they have left are memories that fade with each passing day.

In a world where justice often seems elusive, these women offer compassion, reminding us of the importance of lifting one another up, of recognizing the struggles and sacrifices of women everywhere.
