Prison Fellowship Ministries Mission & Values

Prison Fellowship was founded in 1976 by Charles Colson, a former aide to President Nixon who served a seven-month sentence for Watergate-related crimes. Today the Christian nonprofit is the nation's largest outreach to prisoners, former prisoners, and their families, and a leading advocate for criminal justice reform. Prison Fellowship brings restoration to those affected by crime and incarceration in all 50 states through in-prison programs that facilitate accountability, rehabilitation, and positive reentry; community programs that support children with incarcerated parents and those returning to communities; and by advocating for federal and state criminal justice reforms based on Biblical values. Through an amazing awakening to new hope and life purpose, those who once broke the law are transformed and mobilized to serve their community, replacing the cycle of crime with a cycle of renewal.
