📢I am beautiful!
📢 I am special!
📢Today is going to be a great day, because I SAID SO!

“No matter where you’re from, your dreams are valid.” Lupita Nyong'o
This is one of the images that greets our young dreamers when they walk through CPNYC each day. It serves as a reminder of the power of our dreams. Because of images like these, our children know they have purpose, and promise.
For us, safety means wearing gloves, masks and social distancing when appropriate. It also means being a place where there is physical and emotional safety.
This #mentalillnessawarenessweek and now, more than ever—we are committed to be a safe space for the children in #brooklyn and the #bronx. #wellnesswednesday
Their shirts might say “staff” but we know they are so much more!
Counselors, mentors, supporters, tutors, leaders and cheerleaders, today’s #MondayMotivation goes out to our team working out front (and behind the scenes) to ensure our children succeed.
Our children need us. In our community, COVID elevated the challenges of poverty, racism and injustice.
We continue to be a place of refuge for children who need us most.

Met Shamell (Daqwuan) 11 years at Children of Promise, NYC. He always got into trouble, struggled with family drama, etc.......... But he had alot of potential in him. Over the years we grew a bond and I ADOPTED that big brother role in his life. Took him under my wing. It wasn't easy. Never had a lil brother so my cristism may have been hard. He helped me grow as well. Two years ago he told me he'll take his big brother out to eat, and that he'll make me proud one day. This week he came through on that PROMISE. He took his big brother out to eat for my BDAY. Told me get WHATEVER.$92 bill 😮🙌🏿. I'm proud of him. He's doing amazing in school. Never been locked up, College bound, Straight A's, Working, list goes on. I say this to encourage people take a risk. Make a difference in the next generation, the results will surprise you. ❤❤❤❤🥺

Filming on location in Brooklyn, NY with Romeo. His experiences of violence in the home and on the streets lead him into the system, where he was charged as an adult at the age of 15. Now 23, Romeo is a graduate of The New School’s Institute for Transformative Mentoring (ITM) in New York City. He works at Children of Promise NYC in Brooklyn as a credible messenger, counselor, and mentor to children whose parents are incarcerated.

As we look towards a new year, we envision a society that values the purpose of every child impacted by mass incarceration. A society where decision-makers will not so readily incarcerate Black and Brown men and women—separating them from their children and destroying families. We seek a society that has concern for the children that are left behind.
Our response at CPNYC is a new campaign, Life Outside Bars: Stand for Our Children.
#LifeOutsideBars is for children impacted by mass incarceration throughout New York City--specifically in Brooklyn and the Bronx. For them, this has been traumatic and devastating for decades.
As demonstrated by the stories we are sharing with you, families most often do not need to experience incarceration. There are alternatives and the cycle could end. Your generous support will provide the resources we need to continue to be there for children in Brooklyn and the Bronx.

Fivio Foreign Teamed Up With Million Dollar Drive-By To Give Toys To Kids With Incarcerated Parents
’Twas the night before Christmas,
And in Brooklyn at CPNYC,
Nothing could stop us,
Not even #COVID19.
So much laughter and love,
There was joy in our eyes,
When #FivioForeign turned up in surprise!
We wish you could be here,
And wanted to share,
To the sponsors and donors
We know that you care.
This year like no other,
In so many ways,
Through masks and with hope,
We wish you happy holidays!
The Brooklyn rapper Fivio Foreign joined forces with Million Dollar Motivation to donate toys to NYC’s Children Of Promise, which is an organization dedicated to providing support for children with incarcerated parents.
The “Big Drip” rapper helped giveaway toys to 150 kids, interacted with them, and left them with words of inspiration, all while following COVID-19 protocols.

I don’t think society understands the impact the virus has created,” said Sharon Content, the founder and president of Children of Promise, a nonprofit that offers support and mentoring to children of incarcerated parents.
“Some children don’t have food, or Wi-Fi, or a parent telling them to put on a winter coat.” In the meantime, she continued, “there’s no visitation in the prisons, there are limitations with the phones because more prisoners are on them, and the child is worried that their parent is sick because the Covid rate is so high in prisons.”

1:1 tutoring and academic support are key elements of our PASS program!
We are now enrolling students (K-12) and and are seeking volunteers, technology, supplies and donors to make this crucial program a success. Contact us to get involved and learn more!
Morgan-Mullane is the vice president of mental health services at Children of Promise, NYC. About 12 years ago, the organization’s founder, Sharon Content, created a first-of-its kind program that weaves mental health care into after-school activities for children of incarcerated parents between the ages of 6 and 13. More than 60 percent of the children in Children of Promise witnessed their parents’ arrests.
Kids in the program come to Children of Promise, NYC sites in Brooklyn or the Bronx, where they start with a meal, then move to circle time, where they can discuss their feelings with others in their age group. Then, they can get help with their schoolwork, engage in a recreational activity like volleyball and participate in a therapeutic group session, which could be an art class. Each counselor leading those activities is trained on how to approach a child experiencing a variety of emotions, including frustration or sadness. The organization’s clinicians are on-site and speak to kids individually while the activities are ongoing.

Chelsea's Charity and News 12 visited CPNYC and Chelsea donated 200 art kits! Chelsea and her mom (being interviewed) started this amazing nonprofit devoted to providing art supplies and art lessons to children. We can’t wait to use them to add a little creativity to our days.
According to them, “Together, we can support children's social-emotional and mental health development thru art! Chelsea's Charity officially kicked off when Chelsea asked her guests at her 10th birthday party to bring art supplies as a donation in lieu of gifts for herself. Chelsea has a desire to support children and help them know that art is a start to healing, expression, communicating and so much more!" Thank you, Chelsea!
Did you know? When #COVID19 closed schools, children of color and those in under-resourced communities took the biggest hit in math and reading. We are working to close the gap.
Our innovative and interactive technology meets children right where they are, while inspiring them to dream for the future.
We are growing! Come be a part of something special at CPNYC. Take a look at our current opportunities. ➡️
