On May 19th, 2016, McLennan County State Juvenile Correctional Facility received 60 visitors to celebrate the mothers of youth on campus at a Mother-Son Banquet. Families enjoyed a song written and sung by one of the youth and a presentation of the seven habits to practice raising strong children by the recreation staff. Then, while eating lunch, the mothers were encouraged to stay strong by a guest speaker discussing the importance of mothers in a child’s life. The sons presented a certificate of appreciation to their moms for being there for them through the good and bad times. The afternoon wrapped up with a few rounds of bingo and family photos.
