Between the Lines is a project that positively impacts the community by promoting literacy and strengthening family bonds between incarcerated parents and their children.  Through this program parents read books onto tapes, which are then sent to their children in cd-format along with a new, gift-wrapped book.  These children are then able to hear their parents' voices at any time.  Additionally, listening to the recordings while following along in the books provided by Between the Lines enhances early reading skills.  Between the Lines is proud to be partnering with Santiam and Coffee Creek Correctional Facilities this year.  This innovative program benefits both children and their families.
