SENT BY THE CHURCH

to nurture faith and hope in Virginia prisons

WHO WE ARE

GraceInside is Virginia's prison chaplain service provider.

Our chaplains are licensed or ordained ministers from various denominations. They receive specialized training for their unique ministry setting.

WHAT WE DO

Our Chaplains are dedicated to nurturing faith and hope in Virginia's prisons.

Chaplaincy in prison includes providing one-on-one pastoral care, leading worship services, coordinating volunteers, supporting correctional staff, and overseeing all religious programming.

GET INVOLVED

We value the support of many partner organizations and individuals.

You can contact the chaplain nearest to you, or check out our partner ministries to volunteer (link coming soon!)

About Us

For 105 years, GraceInside has been sent by the churches of Virginia to remember and serve those in prison.

GraceInside has provided Chaplains for Virginia's correctional facilities since 1920, when the organization was founded by seven Christian denominations. While a contract with the Virginia Department of Corrections covers a portion of our budget, we continue to rely on financial support from churches and individuals. Over the years we have received support from various faith communities who are seeking to "remember those in prison."

GraceInside is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization.
