Mother/Child Program Building Renovation Wyoming Women's Center

The once empty brick building, originally built in 1984 and used for work release and intensive treatment at the Wyoming Women’s Center, was repurposed to be used for the Mother and Child program.

The Wyoming Mother and Child program allows mothers to care for their children in an environment that mimics life on the outside, but also provides the mothers with required parenting classes while they remain incarcerated. The 4,200 SF building was renovated to complete the needs of the program, which included new walls, flooring, ceiling, new roof, a heating and cooling system, new windows and doors, stucco and site work. The building has eleven sleeping rooms, three restrooms with show facilities, a kitchen, laundry room and common living room, two staff rooms, a storage room, mechanical room and an area for play/dining/classrooms. The security system in and around the building includes fencing and video cameras.
