The first Girl Scouts Beyond Bars (GSBB) program was founded in Baltimore as a pilot project between the Girl Scouts and the National Institute of Justice, arranging for formal visits between Scouts and their incarcerated mothers. Since then, the concept has spread to more than 30 troops in 23 states, serving nearly a thousand girls at any one time and keeping the vital mother-daughter connection alive through the bars and across the razor wire of America’s women’s prisons.
About NIC SearchThe National Institute of Corrections is targeted toward an adult audience, though it is available for any internet user. NIC does not provide search result filtering, so terms that may trigger some individuals may appear in search results. You can manually remove key words you don't want to appear in your results by using the minus sign modifier before a word, for example: -handcuffs Using the "-" dash or minus character immediately before a word in the search box will remove any search result containing that term. You may use as many search terms and removed words as you would like in the search box. |
