— Members of the Muskogee Soroptimist club visit the Eddie Warrior Correctional Center, "home" to 764 female inmates, two Saturdays each month to help women record CDs of stories read from children’s and teen’s books.
The club then sends the CDs, the mothers’ pictures and the books to the inmates’ children as part of the program Mom's Touch.
