About Rides For Families: In Honor Of Winchel Aubourg
Our Rides for Families initiative provides free transportation services for children with incarcerated parents to visit their incarcerated family at any MA state prison or county jail. This is important to our goal of keeping families connected. In addition to providing free transportation service to children and their families, we also aim to hold space to decompress, process, and heal from the trauma, frustration, and emotional toll it takes to visit a loved one in prison. Our intention is to invite members of our community who are trusted healers to make the trips with us and offer their skills and various healing modalities as well as ancestral medicine.
