Concord Prison Outreach: Mission Statement
The mission of Concord Prison Outreach (CPO), a volunteer,
non-profit corporation, working cooperatively with the Department of
Correction, is to help reduce recidivism through the development and
delivery of educational and personal growth programs, principally at
the
Massachusetts Correctional Institution, Concord, and at
Northeastern Correctional Center, Concord. CPO strives to prepare
inmates for returning to society as responsible and productive
citizens.
To fulfill this mission, Concord Prison Outreach communicates
regularly with local faith groups; recruits and supports volunteers;
seeks the financial support of local faith communities, individuals
and businesses; and informs the people of Concord and surrounding
towns about current issues involving prisons and the criminal
justice system in order to build awareness and understanding.
