The Cost of Incarceration to Children

When a parent is incarcerated, families face overwhelming financial and emotional burdens:

Loss of income
Court fees and legal expenses
Bond payments
Transportation costs
Family instability

Incarceration and Poverty Are Linked Together. That’s why we allow students in low-income neighborhoods around our school to enroll as well.

Children are often the hidden victims.
They struggle academically.
They battle anxiety and fear.
Children with incarcerated parents are up to 7 times more likely to follow their parents into jail or prison by their 23rd birthday.

High school dropouts are 3.5x more likely to commit a crime than students who graduate.

But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Your generosity creates a pathway to hope.

Your Gift Helps Us Produce Strong, Confident Graduates

Many have successfully transitioned and become leaders in middle school, high school, and college after completing their early education at LCA.

The state spends an average of $29,500 per year per inmate. Early educational intervention reduces incarceration rates and creates long-term economic and social benefits for the entire community.
