Hey y’all so I’m partnering again with @TheBPPOfficial again to help raise money for The Message Project during the dacetacular gaming for a cause 9. Last year the group raised 8600$ this year they wanna hit 10k. I want to help break that with them. 1/2

Special delivery! These books just arrived from donors Sherry and Jimmy King...just in time. We're filming holiday messages with moms today.

We're making appointments for holiday recording sessions! You know what that means? We sure could use some books. If you're able to send a few, it will help us kick off the holiday season and ensure we can reach as many children as possible this year.

We're finally starting to be able to get back into the old routine. Filming has begun for Spring message deliveries. Thank you for continuing to support the children throughout the pandemic. They have waited so long for this!

[The Messages Project @MessagesProject]

They exceeded their goal! Thank you so much to everyone involved who helped raise over $8,000 for our program. We are eternally grateful.

[Basement Protocol Productions @TheBPPOfficial]

We did it! The games were played, the punishments were handed out, the goal was met, and now we sleep. Until next year, Basement Dwellers...stick to the protocol!

Tremendous thanks to Fran Bolin of @AstFamiliesOI for sending us these precious books. We'll be taking them to parents to film messages soon. In April, we'll make it to River North, Keen Mountain, Red Onion, Wallens Ridge, & Pocahontas. The children will be thrilled!

@ZombieSemper @TheBPPOfficial Thank you for your support!

This is a beautiful example of how parenthood can transcend incarceration.

As a child psychiatrist, I see many foster kids whose parents are locked up.

If we believe in rehabilitation, we need programs which emphasize humanity.

We are happy to announce that we've come up with a plan to start filming messages again that is safe and comfortable for everyone involved. If COVID cases stay on a downward trend, there are 12 institutions lined up to participate starting in April. So exciting!

Along with devastating COVID-19 outbreaks throughout California prisons, successfully scheduling video visits is difficult due to paperwork issues, lack of capacity, and widespread computer glitches. Dozens of families have been forced to cancel visits.

If you have a family member behind bars, or if you work with children who have a parent in prison, "A Parent's Message" is a great book to share. It includes removable worksheets that kids and parents can mail to each other to maintain a healthy bond.
