Familywellness in Maryland

The MA'AT Institute for Restorative Justice, located at 5001 Silver Hill Road in Hillcrest Heights, Maryland, is a health institution that focuses on providing support and healing for mothers and families who have experienced the challenges of navigating the criminal justice system while dealing with the incarceration of their sons. The institute travels around the country hosting "Circles of Hope and Healing" to provide emotional support and compassion to those who may feel isolated and mentally exhausted during these difficult times. The Heart Strings Project, the primary initiative of the institute, aims to strengthen the human spirit and foundation of diverse communities, families, and individuals. By offering opportunities for healing and support, the project seeks to help mothers with sons in prison by creating accessible networks for personal healing, emotional wellness, resource development, and family solidarity.
