Many have received little or no mail, and your message of hope, encouragement, or support can make a real difference.
WHY WRITE A PRISONER?
The Benefits of Becoming a Prison Penpal
Becoming a prison penpal offers powerful benefits. For inmates, it’s a connection to the outside world that can positively impact their mindset, behavior, and hope for the future. For you, it’s a chance for meaningful conversation, purpose, and even joy.
Whether you’re corresponding with a male or female inmate in a county jail, state or federal prison, or a detention center, PrisonFriendship helps you find the perfect penpal. Write a prisoner today and make a difference in their life—and yours.
Corresponding with a prisoner reduces loneliness, boosts self-esteem, and can even spark personal growth. Inmates who build these connections often transform their lives for the better. Your support could provide the hope they need to change their future.
