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.
