About US
We provide compassion, support, and hope for families with incarcerated loved ones through meaningful service and lasting connections.
We envision a world where people with incarcerated loved ones are empowered, supported, and surrounded by communities of compassion, fostering hope, healing, and lasting relationships that restore dignity and transform lives
Having an incarcerated loved one is an emotional and financial burden that few truly understand until they experience it firsthand. As someone who has walked this path, I know the overwhelming cost of staying connected—legal fees, phone calls, commissary expenses—all while trying to remain afloat.
With a background in finance and once a single mother myself, I understand the strain this places on loved ones who are already carrying so much. That’s why I founded LockedIN HOPE—to connect and empower individuals facing these challenges.
No one should have to go through this alone. Here, we provide transportation, guidance, resources, and a community of strength to help keep connection for families with incarcerated loved ones, and their children to build a brighter future, even in the face of adversity.
