Correctional Services
Our correctional services support individuals transitioning from incarceration by offering rehabilitation, job training, and reintegration programs.

Correctional Services at Massachusetts Division
The Salvation Army's Correctional Services program is dedicated to providing support and rehabilitation services to individuals within the correctional system. Our goal is to help incarcerated people transform their lives and successfully reintegrate into our community.
Through our local chaplains and volunteers, we offer a variety of programs and services designed to address the spiritual, emotional, and practical needs of incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals in our community. We strive to create a positive environment that fosters personal growth, reduces recidivism, and promotes a more just and compassionate society.
How You Can Help
You can help support individuals in the correctional system by:
- Donating: Your gift helps us provide essential services to incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals and their families.
- Advocating: Raise awareness about the needs of incarcerated individuals.
- Donating Goods: Donate gently used clothing, books, and other items to support our programs.
By working together, we can help break the cycle of incarceration and create a stronger and more equitable society.
Bible study isn't the only service we provide to people who are incarcerated.
Our prison ministries include parenting classes, decision-making courses, music theory, Celebrate Recovery meetings, and the annual Salvation Army Toy Lift during the holidays are available at a number of corrections facilities across the country.
