Chaplaincy Unit
The Chaplaincy Unit provides 52 weekly program offerings to inmates.
Religion
The religion group is led by a full-time, on-staff chaplain and is supplemented with the hard work of approximately 90 lay and clerical volunteers. Religious studies for people of any religious faith are available through volunteer staff, and some worship services are offered regularly.
The chaplain provides pastoral care to inmates who request such services.
Additionally, the chaplain and chaplain volunteers of various faiths offer chapel services, religious education programs and individual ministry to inmates.
The chaplain's office also provides limited supplies of religious books and materials per inmate request.
