Naomi is one of the women supported by Carakana Program and here she shares her story: A PROUD PARENT
"My name is Naomi, and I'm an inmate at the Lang’ata Women’s Prison. I began cross stitching in 2016.The money I have made has helped me take care of my children back at home. I left them when they were very young and in the care of my sister; but now they are mature and I am proud that I could take care of them even from prison. Not many visit me but I am very grateful to Carakana team that visits us during trainings. This helped me get over stress and anxiety that had become unmanageable with drugs. Stitching became therapeutic and I sometimes go over three months without needing any medication."
