Description
The Insight Alliance works in prisons and in the community to transform the lives of adults and youths impacted by the carceral system by pointing them to their innate resilience and wellbeing. The Insight Alliance does so through/offers the following programs and resources:
Insight To Wellbeing Program Insight to Wellbeing is the Insight Alliance’s signature 10-week, evidence-based program that’s offered in a group setting for 1.5 - 2 hours per week. The program is led by a cohort of trained teachers who utilize a strengths-based curriculum designed to teach an understanding of the mind and human experience for the purpose of reducing risk factors, uncovering resiliency, and promoting emotional and psychological well- being for adults and youth in the criminal justice system. This is taught through a compilation of sessions that speak to the potential, ability and resilience inside every human.
Currently, Insight to Wellbeing is offered at:
- Columbia River Correctional Institution (CRCI), Portland, Oregon
- Coffee Creek Correctional Facility (CCCF), Wilsonville, Oregon
- MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility, Woodburn, Oregon
- Oak Creek Youth Correctional Facility, Albany, Oregon
- NW Regional Re-entry Center, Portland, Oregon
They also offer Insight to Wellbeing through community-based partners such as Morrison Child & Family Services, the Federal DSTART (Deferred Sentencing To Advance Rehabilitation & Treatment) program, and Parrott Creek Child & Family Services. https://www.theinsightalliance.org/insight-to-wellbeing
Peer Mentorship Program The Insight Alliance’s peer mentors offer support to their mentees as they navigate life after being released from prison, typically alongside a Case Manager. Peer mentors provide educational, career, and recreational supports and opportunities to their mentees. Participants who share similar life experiences are paired, enabling mentors to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges their mentees are encountering.
Mentee-mentor meetings take place in person or virtually, at least once a month, with the frequency determined by both the mentor and mentee. Mentees and mentors also have opportunities for more informal check-ins, through phone calls, texts, emails, etc.
