Impact Investment: Christmas Parties Inside Juvenile Hall

Your Impact Investment powers real change—sharing Hope, Joy, and the Love of Jesus with Every Unit

Your Investment Drives Impact

This December, Modern Abolition is bringing Christmas inside Sacramento County’s Youth Detention Facility. And for many of these young people, these celebrations mean more than you can imagine.

When we first stepped into the Chaplaincy program this summer, one of the very first questions the youth asked was:
“Are we doing Christmas parties this year?”
The answer is YES — and they’re already looking forward to it.

For many youth inside YDF, Christmas is not an easy season. Separation from family, painful memories, and the weight of their circumstances often make the holidays feel lonely. These Christmas parties create something powerful:
moments where they are seen, valued, and loved, and where the hope of Jesus shines in a place that needs it most.
