| 520 | |a As prisons across the United States increasingly utilize faith-based programs under the auspices of correctional treatment, investigators have studied how these programs impact the attitudes and behaviors of inmates while in prison and after release. Little is known, however, about the ministry workers responsible for the provision of these faith-based prison programs. We address this understudied issue using the rich narratives of thirty prison chaplains and local religious congregants in Mississippi. Two overarching themes emerged from their narratives of prison ministry work. First, chaplains and local congregants have a distinctive goal orientation that discourages the creation of numeric goals for their ministry. Second, the ministry workers are careful to avoid specific denominational issues that might create barriers to inmates' religious involvement or that might create security issues. This study provides an indepth understanding of the motivations and approaches used by this understudied group | ||
