Restoring Hope, Rebuilding Lives
Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering. – Hebrews 13:3
Our Work
Volunteer chaplains from Kentucky Jail Ministries carry resources, faith, hope and prayer to those who often feel hopeless. Our chaplains provide multilingual resources and teach Life Skills 101–a program to help men and women develop the basic skills necessary for successful reentry into society.
From Kentucky Corrections Professionals…
“The Life Skills program offers offenders the opportunity to address…personal issues as well as teaching them how to be successful, productive citizens of society. If we don’t minister, encourage, and educate our offenders then the chance of success is very low.”
“Kentucky Jail Ministries has developed a Life Skills program to aid individuals in their reentry into society…[to] develop skills needed to be successful in every day life…writing checks and taking care of a bank account to creating a resume for a job position…Inmates have changed their attitudes and hope to become productive, law-abiding citizens upon their release.”
“I am a 22 year Corrections Professional and have seen many faith-based groups come into a jail for services. None of these groups, in my opinion, can equal the positive impact that the Kentucky Jail Ministries has on our prisoner population…”
