In-Prison: Mentor an Inmate
Mentor an Inmate
While incarcerated, many prisoners simply grow more hardened in their criminal mindsets. The negative influences around them make change an uphill battle, but their odds of transformation improve dramatically with the help of a dedicated in-prison mentor.
Prison Fellowship mentors are regular people from diverse backgrounds, encouragers who go into correctional settings to develop one-on-one relationships with an inmate of their same gender. With authenticity, gentleness, and respect, they model Godly attitudes and behaviors for their mentees. They also help prepare an inmate for transition back into the family, church, and community, by helping them establish goals, learn life skills, and grow towards greater maturity. Mentors demonstrate commitment and genuine care along the long-term road to transformation.
Turn your life experience and caring into an opportunity for an inmate to change. Let Prison Fellowship give you everything you need to become an in-prison mentor.
