The Heart of the Prison Family
If someone you love is justice-impacted (arrested, incarcerated, being released), PFA is here for you — whether you’re a parent, spouse, partner, child, sibling, or anyone who cares about someone who is incarcerated. We don’t just offer resources; we offer support and compassion for each other.
Online and in-person support meetings are available across the country, including a monthly online meeting just for teens. In-person meetings are currently offered in New York, Ohio, Maryland, Indiana, Arizona, Georgia and Nevada. Link to Calendar.

Our Las Vegas program runs every 2nd and 4th Monday and is designed so that no one has to choose between getting support and caring for their children.
Adult support meeting — A space for any adult with a justice-impacted loved one to share honestly, be heard, and find strength in others who truly get it — because they’re living it too. Link to Calendar.
Youth Program — While adults meet, children and teens have their own safe, compassionate space — connecting with peers who understand, through conversation, crafts, and activities designed just for them. Link to Calendar. Registration for Youth.
Both meetings run at the same time — adults support each other while youth do the same. Everyone gets what they need, together.
