PRISON FELLOWSHIP: Task Force

  • Advocacy & Reentry
Human Dignity and Justice Reform

A version of this story originally appeared on the BreakPoint website, and is reproduced here with permission.

In 2014, in an all-too-rare case of bipartisan cooperation, Congress created the Charles Colson Task Force on Federal Corrections to tackle what many have called a crisis in the federal prison system.

A Dream Realized

It was just a few months before Chuck went home to Jesus. We were sitting in his home in Naples, Florida, and he was “schooling” me, as he did several times in the nine months he and I were together at Prison Fellowship.

Press Release: Colson Task Force Established by Congress

On January 16, the U. S. Senate passed the FY 2014 Omnibus Bill.  By doing so, it established the Charles Colson Task Force on Federal Corrections.  The non-partisan task force will make recommendations on a host of issues surrounding the criminal justice system, including recidivism rates, rights of both victims and inmates, and cost controls.
