Parenting Inside Out

Strengthening Family Bonds Across Barriers

Parenting Inside Out (PIO) is a nationally recognized, evidence-based parenting program specifically designed for incarcerated parents. Developed by Oregon Social Learning Center, PIO teaches effective parenting skills, helps parents understand child development, and prepares them for successful reunification with their children after release.

The program addresses the unique challenges faced by incarcerated parents — including maintaining meaningful relationships with children despite physical separation, navigating the family court system, and building the skills needed to be an effective parent upon release. PIO has been shown to improve parenting knowledge, reduce recidivism, and strengthen family bonds.

Building Pro-Social Thinking and Decision-Making

Thinking for a Change (T4C) is a nationally recognized cognitive-behavioral intervention developed by the National Institute of Corrections. The program integrates cognitive restructuring, social skills development, and problem-solving to help participants identify and change the thinking patterns that lead to antisocial behavior.

T4C teaches participants to recognize how their thoughts influence their feelings and actions, develop empathy and perspective-taking skills, and use structured problem-solving to navigate challenging situations. The program is designed for both incarcerated individuals and community members seeking to make positive changes in their lives.
