I tell you the truth, whatever you did to one of the least of these brothers or sisters of mine, you did for me.” Matthew 25:39-40 The Friend-to-Friend Program invites you to be matched with someone in prison to visit once a month. Inmate participants are screened. Volunteer training and staff support are provided. You’re not asked to do anything you don’t already know how to do -- just be a friend to someone who needs one.
