Jail and Prison Ministry mission – The mission of Catholic Charities is to reduce poverty, strengthen families and empower communities in the 30 most northeast counties of Iowa.
Who they help – Through a vast network of volunteer mentors and support groups, Catholic Charities’ Jail & Prison Ministry program strives to prepare and support ex-offenders as they work toward positive re-entry into family and community life. Mentors meet with offenders in prison or jail as well as after their release to provide the needed support to resist relapse into old habits and lifestyles.
