Women's Day at the Penitentiary Institution

Armenia | Armenia Community Action and Linkages for Legal Socialization | 24 Mar 2015



On March 9, within the AM CALLS project, the “Offenders' Rehabilitation Center” State Non-Commercial Organization of the RA Ministry of Justice (MoJ) organized an event called “Motherhood and Childhood” at the Abovyan penitentiary where female convicts carry out their sentence.

With the support of the staff from the organization, over ten children arrived to the penitentiary from different regions of Armenia to meet their mothers and spend some time with them.

During the event they were also exposed to the handiwork of their mothers, such as pottery, embroidery. They received cards with holiday wishes, prepared by their mothers, as well as presents, sweets and supplies. By the end of the event the women also rehearsed and performed their favorite songs.
