Inmate Services

Credit-bearing courses in prisons are transforming lives by offering accredited degrees and CTE certifications. With Pell Grants restored, quality standards now ensure these programs match college rigor-boosting employment and cutting recidivism.

Inmate services in U.S. prisons include housing, medical care, education, and rehabilitation programs designed to manage security while preparing incarcerated individuals for life after release. These services vary by facility but are critical to reducing recidivism.
