F.A.C.T Fathers and Children Together (design) © 2015 Amber Art & Design / Ernel Martinez!👍🏼in partnership with Mural Arts Program! Up on the wall and culminating this June. "One of the unintended consequences of our criminal justice system is that families get broken up. Children are often hurt, through no fault of their own, by the actions of a parent. When a parent is incarcerated, it becomes almost impossible to have a normal relationship with a child. [...] The project is a collaborative effort between Mural Arts and the United Community Action Network at SCI Graterford, a maximum-security prison where we hold art classes and where murals are painted. FACT helps fathers who are incarcerated to reconnect with their children, in the hope that these men can become positive role models and encourage their children to make positive life decisions."
