St Peter Claver Prison Ministry is a faith-based mentorship program empowering the incarcerated, ex-offenders and their families obtain self-sufficiency and reduce recidivism. We are a Special Conference of the St Vincent DePaul Society serving Central Florida. Our goal is to provide the resources, guidance, and encouragement needed to vulnerable adults in order for them to reach their God-given potential.
Our Mission is to positively impact the lives of men and women re-entering society from incarceration. We accomplish this by providing spiritual mentorship, fellowship, practical support, informed guidance in life skills, so that successful re-entry into the community can be maintained.
To accomplish this objective requires a willingness of active participation with vulnerable individuals, a desire to serve the poor, mutual perseverance and presence. This Mission represents a commitment that extends not only from our faith but also describes the values that must be carried beyond Church walls into the community.
