About us
Founded more than 25 years ago, Hour Children® was named to acknowledge the important hours that shape the life of a child with an incarcerated mother – the hour of their mother’s arrest, the hour of their visit, and the hour of her release. The organization’s vision is to end the cycle of intergenerational incarceration. Our mission is to help incarcerated and formerly incarcerated women and their children successfully rejoin the community, reunify with their families, and build healthy, independent and secure lives. To accomplish this, Hour Children provides compassionate and comprehensive services and encourages all to live and interact with dignity and respect.

Hour Children joined Hudson Link for Higher Education in Prison to discuss reentry strategies for NYS prosecutors. Experts in the field came together for a forum to offer insights on how to best serve survivors of abuse who are justice impacted. Forum members included Hour Children’s Alethea Taylor, PhD, CRC, Elizabeth Santiago from Hudson Link, and women resentenced due to DVSJA. Thank you to Lisa Perlman, Chief of the DVSJA unit with the Brooklyn’s DA office, for organizing and moderating this event!
