People incarcerated
In the United States

96% of all inmates will be released at some point

Statistics show that 68% of individuals released will reoffend¹ within just 3 years; recidivism is reduced when inmates are connected to Faith based programs behind the walls, and in one study convictions dropped by 35%².

If you had a son or daughter behind prison walls, wouldn't you want them to have the HOPE that is in Christ?
