The Convicted Conference will be coming to Ten Mile Christian Church in Meridian on June 4, from 10:00 – 17:00. The event is focused on providing healing and hope to Idaho’s justice-affected families.
Community organizations and government agencies will participate in 30-minute breakout sessions, in which one can expect intimate, authentic dialogue centered around community barriers, tangible resources, and Idaho’s recidivism problem.
Topics will include: Health and Healthcare, Communication, Parenting, Addiction and Recovery, Marriage and Partnerships, Reentry Support, Support and Assistance for Children of the Incarcerated Parents, and much more.
There will be plenty of opportunities to network and resource, as well as free food and activities for children — with childcare offered to all in attendance.
Community organizations not scheduled to speak are invited to show up and explore solutions related to addiction, mental illness, housing, transportation, and employment. Learn about, or plug-in to, the support services needed by citizens returning from incarceration.
There will be opportunities to meet with parole/probation officers, volunteers, mentors, and workforce and employment agencies, all of whom will be happy to introduce the formerly incarcerated and their families to available community resources.
Admission is free.
