Lynn Springer
Innocent Spouse & Children Project
Lynn Springer is the Founding Advocate of the Innocent
Spouse & Children Project. As the innocent partner of a
white-collar criminal, and a mother, Lynn is called to this
ministry with a heart of compassion and understanding. She
assists women and families in finding ethical ways through
faith and practical solutions to a new, sturdy, healthy way
of life. Lynn’s concern for children and social justice for all
people led her to several nonprofit Board and volunteer
situations, including: as curriculum consultant and essay
reader at Friends of Nick, a NYC faith-based foundation
created to build character and integrity in underprivileged
inner city youth; as a member of the Board of Directors of
Pathways, Greenwich, CT, at which she advocated for the
needs and care of the mentally ill; and on the Board of the
International Aids Charitable Foundation, NYC.
She is a long-time supporter of criminal justice/prison
initiatives: Re-Entry Ministry, a faith-based halfway house
for women in E. Bridgeport, CT, Family ReEntry in
Bridgeport & New Haven, CT, a nonprofit serving formerly
incarcerated people and their families, and Pivot Ministries,
Bridgeport, CT, a faith-based halfway house for addiction
recovery. As a woman of faith, Lynn was pleased to serve
terms as Deacon and Senior Deacon at the Second
Congregational Church of Greenwich, CT.
