Prison Project: Resources Overview
Free materials to nourish the minds of prisoners, their families, and their loved ones
The root mission of the Everyman Prison Project is to promote the enlightenment of prisoners, their loved ones and society.
As we believe there is no prison outside of the mind, each Prison Project program is designed to reach as many prisoners and families as we can to provide them with materials that will nourish their minds and spirits, improve their self esteem and fill their minds with love and hope.
The programs we have in place to fulfill our mission are summarized on this page.
PROGRAM 1: EVERYMAN TRANSFORMATIONAL RESOURCES FOR PRISONERS AND THEIR FAMILIES
1. FREE EVERYMAN BOOKS FOR PRISONERS
These books are available upon request without charge to all prisoners, wherever they are located in the world. With the assistance of Everyman volunteers, these books have been written or complied by Everyman founder Gerald Henry for the specific purpose of helping prisoners transform their incarceration into a period of growth and purification rather than a period of idle waste and despair.
