Write An Inmate
​
​There are many prison pen pal sites and research has shown that both male and female prison pen pals who form and keep positive contacts outside of prison are less likely to reoffend- therefore lowering rates of recidivism. 

For anyone interested in finding Pagan Prison Pen Pals, these are the two correspondence sites that are the best:

Help Send Books

While many inmates are in need of books, they can not receive them directly through personal donations. Most prisons will only allow books to inmates to come directly from companies or organizations. Below are some organizations where you can donate books to who will send them to prisons on your half. Also, keep in mind, that many prisons will also only accept paperback books.
