97% of Our Program Graduates Get Out and Stay Out of Prison!

Mobilize the Body of Christ to disciple and equip incarcerated men and women for victorious Christian living.

The Problem: DOJ report 68% of all inmates released return to prison within 3 years

The Solution: Along Side graduates are a different story - 97% who get out, stay out.

OUR SOLUTION

As three strands are not easily broken – so it is with our three-step solution.

Interview with Jay Cory, our Executive Director

ABOUT US

Along Side Ministries has provided both spiritual and practical guidance as well as support to 300+ incarcerated Christian men and women as they transition from prison back to the community.

TRANSFORMED LIVES

When Melissa’s addiction got her six years in prison, she didn’t know where to turn. Separated from her four children, she almost lost hope. Then she found Along Side and everything changed.

The first time Chrissy was released from prison, she was alone. She ended up addicted, homeless, and right back in prison. The second time, Along Side, was there – and it made all the difference.

Darren lost his family, then his freedom. Thankfully, Along Side was there to help him pick up the pieces and get back on his feet. Today, he’s been restored – he’s a different man!

Meet some of the people whose lives have been changed because of YOUR SUPPORT.
