Get On The Bus brings children and their
guardians/caregivers from throughout the
state of California to visit their mothers and
fathers in prison. An annual event, Get On The Bus
offers free transportation for the children and their
caregivers to the prison, provides travel bags for the
children, comfort care bags for the caregivers, a photo
of each child with his or her parent, and meals for the
day (breakfast, snacks on the bus, lunch at the prison,
and dinner on the way home)— all at no cost to the
children’s family. On the bus trip home, following a
four-hour visit, each child receives a teddy bear with a
letter from their parent and post-event counseling.
Get On The Bus is a program of The Center for Restorative Justice Works, a non profit organization that unites children, families and communities seperated by crime and the criminal justice system.
