DISRUPTING THE CYCLE OF INTER-GENERATIONAL INCARCERATION
Through our 4-day Camp experience, these incredible children will experience spiritual, social, and relational growth, as well as prepare them for a restorative relationship with their parents upon release from jail or prison. The Camp Agape California Camps are empowered by our generous supporters and donors who enable our team of volunteers to send the children to a four-day camp at no charge to them. Camp Agape California is fueled by a passionate team of Volunteers and committed believers who want to make a difference in the lives of these children, make positive impacts to our California communities by disrupting the pandemic of inter-generational incarceration, and facilitate breakthrough healing and growth through the teachings of Jesus Christ.
California has the Nation’s largest women’s Prison Population. Many are single Moms with limited or no contact with their Children.
Our Free 4-Day kids camp is designed disrupt this cycle of inter-generational incarceration.
Restoring joy, laughter and hope in the lives of these kids is what we are after!
$75,000.00 is the annual cost for California to house a prisoner (LA Times). Neglecting these children will create our future prisoners.
292,000 Children in California have one or both parents in Prison (CRB). 50% of these Children will end up in Prison.
We invite you to join the movement to restore hope, joy, love and forgiveness in these precious lives of California children.
