Middlesex Sheriff’s Office staff distributes backpacks to children of incarcerated individuals
With school starting across the county, members of the Middlesex Sheriff’s Office staff recently distributed nearly 40 backpacks to children and younge
r siblings of individuals incarcerated at the Middlesex Jail & House of Correction.
On Saturday, August 18, leaders of the MSO Family Support Services Unit and Education Department spent the day meeting with families as they picked up backpacks filled with supplies and chose from a wide array of age-appropriate books. The backpacks, supplies and books were generously donated by Concord Prison Outreach, which works with the office on a number of initiatives. In addition, The Discovery Museum in Acton donated family passes.
Pictured at the distribution event with some of the backpacks are (from left to right) Middlesex Sheriff Peter J. Koutoujian, Family Resource and Outreach Coordinator Lili Bonilla and Director of Education Lisa Aubin.
