prison chaplains

Prison chaplains are religious or spiritual leaders who work within correctional facilities to provide spiritual support, counseling, and guidance to inmates of all faiths or beliefs. They facilitate religious services, offer emotional and moral assistance, and help inmates maintain their spiritual well-being. Chaplains also serve as a bridge between inmates and the broader faith community, promoting rehabilitation, hope, and personal growth. Their work is generally non-judgmental, focusing on supporting individuals' spiritual needs while respecting diverse beliefs within the prison environment.
