What we do.

Alana Wilson’s Helping Hands Village provides mentorship and advocacy through our unique child-centered, trauma-informed approach. Our programs, events, and workshops are geared towards healing children and helping them to fulfill a need or learn a new skill that their incarcerated parent may be unable to teach/show them. These workshops are culturally enriching and fulfilling to a child that is having both a traumatic and isolating experience such as parental incarceration. We have a network of invaluable community-based resources to help connect kids to whatever they may need at that moment, whether that be therapy, mentorship, tutoring, health education, or even a feeling of belonging and sureness in uncertain times.
