Historical Background
Founded: the organizations was formally founded in August 1976, but seminars and Bible
studies for the encouragement and training of prisoners who were Christians had been held in
1975.
Location of headquarters: For a brief time, PF operated out of the offices of the Fellowship
Foundation in Arlington, Virginia, but soon acquired its own building. The United States
organization has always been based in the Washington, DC area. In 2000, its headquarters was
in the Washington suburb of Reston, Virginia.

Prison Fellowship ministry begun in Russia
Ministry specialty or emphasis: Prison Fellowship worked to provide Christian support and
nurture to prisoners, their families, and victims of crime. It was also concerned that the criminal
justice system be fair and efficient. Christian volunteers in nearby communities were organized
to visit prisons and jails regularly to witness to prisoners and encourage Christian inmates.
Educational seminars (some held in prison, others at PF headquarters in Washington, DC) were
conducted to train prisoners in how to lead Bible studies and share their faith. There were also
programs for the families of prisoners, including Angel Tree, which distributes gifts at
Christmastime to the children of inmates in the name of the incarcerated parent. Justice
Fellowship, a non-profit foundation that grew out of PF, investigated issues related to criminal
justice reform and lobbied at the state and national level for legislation. Other activities included
pre-release counseling, assistance after release from prison (including family counseling), prison
ministry project development and publishing, and working for criminal justice reform.
Scope and Content Description
[NOTE: In the Scope and Content description, the notation "folder 4-2 means box 4,
folder 2.]
The Prison Fellowship Ministries collection consists of the files of the organization and includes
correspondence, memos, reports, manuals, budgets, statistics, publicity materials, applications,
reference materials, photographs, and photo albums (the last two being described in their own
location records). The documents tell the story of the origins of the ministry and its development
up until the late 1980s, including the creation of a nationwide organization, the growth of
affiliated ministries in other countries, the United States' PF programs for witnessing to the
gospel in prisons and nurturing the Christian growth of prisoners, the organization of local
volunteers, the growth of leadership and Bible study training programs, the development of
programs for prisoners' families and the work of Justice Fellowship, which was created to lobby
for reform in the criminal justice system. Besides documenting the actual ministry of Prison
Fellowship, the records illustrate its function as an organization, including activities such as
training, evaluation of programs, public relations, fund raising, and the building of physical
facilities. The records also contain much information on prison ministry in general and on
criminal justice in the United States and the workings of the jail and prison system.

Boxes: 1 through 22
Geographic coverage: United States
Subjects: Reception of Colson's book, Born Again; production and distribution and reception of

ministries and the attempts of the staff to define and refine the organizations goals and methods.
A significant part of the collection relates to the production and promotion of Colson's book Born
Again and the movie that was based on it. The arrangement of the materials was provided by the
archivist. The collection is in two subseries. The first occupies boxes 1 through 8 and most of
box 9 and contains the material about the book and the film Born Again and its premieres in
different cities which were arranged for publicity and fund raising. The second is in boxes 9
through 22 and consists of PF office files.
Subseries: A. Born Again files
Arrangement: Alphabetical by folder title
Date Range: 1975-1980
Volume: 4.81 cubic feet
Boxes: 1 through 9
Geographic coverage: United States
Type of documents: Movie scripts, reviews, correspondence, newspaper clippings, mailing lists,
form letters
Subjects: The Born Again book and film, reviews of the same, the use of the premiere for the
film to raise money for Prison Fellowship
Notes: The folders in box 1 deal mainly with the book version of Colson's autobiography,
mainly with the ways the book was promoted and the responses it evoked. There is information
on tour schedules, advertising plans, notes on dedication, captions for photos. The rest of the
files in boxes 2 through 9 relate to the Avco Embassy company film based on the book. Files 5-2
through 6-1 contain drafts of the script, showing additions and deletions. Folder 4-7 contains the
packet sent to the press about the movie, with information on Colson, the actors, and the
production staff. Almost all the rest of the material relates to the series of premieres across the
country which were held for the film in 1978. These premieres were used as a means to raise
funds and volunteers for Prison Fellowship. Folder 3-27 contains a manual outlining how to plan
a premiere. Some of the form letters used to invite people to the occasion or to recruit hosts and
other participants can be found in folders 3-22, 3-24, 3-26, 4-4, 6-2, and 6-4. Folders 6-5 to 9-7
contain information on the premieres in specific cities, listing the hosts, volunteers, location,
budget, etc. Reviews of the film and a few of the book are arranged geographically according to
the location of the publication publishing the review in folders 2-4 through 3-21. (Folder 11-3
contains a critique of the film by a PF staff member). Folder 2-22 contains a few foreign reviews
and folder 2-13 some national ones. In a few cases, retreats were held before the premiere for
staff to help plan events. Some of these meetings are documented in folders 9-4 to 9-6.
Additional material on the film, particularly the partnership agreements that helped finance it,
can be found in boxes 52 and 53.
Subseries: B. Prison Fellowship files
Arrangement: The files for each year are together and are arranged alphabetically. In cases
where a file covers more than one year, the last year covered by the file determined where it was
placed.
Date Range: 1976-1982
Volume: 6.94 cubic feet
Boxes: 9 through 22
Geographic coverage: United States
Type of documents: Inter-office memos, correspondence, minutes of meetings, reports,
manuals, personnel files, financial records, manuals.
Subjects: The documents in this section are mainly to or from a few of the top leaders at PF such
as Colson, Loux, Veerman, etc. They relate to the development and change of PF over the years,
the activities of Chuck Colson, reports on PF activities, the situation in American prisons and
lobbying efforts for prison and criminal justice reform, PF's relationship to its constituency and
PF's relationship with other Christian organizations. Material relating to these various topics can
be found in virtually every folder in boxes 10 through 22.
Notes: When Prison Fellowship first began in 1976, the staff's experience was limited to holding
a seminar for prisoners in Washington but other activities it might undertake were undetermined
as was the best permanent structure of the organization. File 10-12 has some of the early PF
organization charts as well as several drafts of the goals of the organization. Folders 12-2 and
12-3 also contain statements of goals as well as a personnel manual, an operating manual and
lists of long range and short range goals. Also in folder 12-3 is an interesting foundation
questionnaire with information on PF's structure, goal and methods. Folder 12-5 has the script
for an audiovisual presentation made in 1977 called Somebody Cares. This program describes
what it is like to be a prisoner, the realities of prison ministry and PF's methods and goals at that
time. Also in the folder, as background material for the script, are the transcripts of several
prisoners' testimonies. The finished video is also in this collection and is described in the
Videotape Location Record (V1). Folder 12-1 has another operations manual draft, with
information on how to organize an inmates seminar, public relations, position descriptions and
PF's table of organization at the time. What is apparently the final version of the manual can be
found in folder 22-2. When PF attempted to buy a church property to use as its headquarters, it
met opposition from the local community which did not want a prison ministry in their midst.
Folder 14-4 contains material describing the dispute as well as more information on PF's mission
and methods. Folder 21-1 contains a notebook kept by Paul Kramer with copies of reports about
prisoner seminars, the development of Prison Fellowship goals and methods, the chaplaincy
program and other projects.
Folders 9-8 and 9-9 contain clippings from various newspapers around the country reporting on
early PF activities and documenting the public's reaction to them. The files on the dedication of
the organization's new offices (17-7, 17-8) contain lists of those invited to the ceremonies and
give some idea of who the supporters of PF were, as well as the people it wished to influence.
The folders of the executive vice-president are an especially good source to trace PF's
development and its many activities.
The development of policies in a variety of areas can be traced through materials in these folders:
relations with the news media (11-1, 13-8, 18-6, 17-11), publicity (13-8, 14-1,14-2, 17-9, 17-11),
fund-raising (13-8, 13-9, 16-6, 16-7), computerizing the work of the organization (13-8, 17-6, 10-1 to 10-10, 12-6 to 13-6), use of volunteers (12-1, 12-2, 18-8, 19-1, 19-3).
Several folders contain analysis of potential PF staff or volunteers, such as 11-1, 11-3, 13-9.
Jesse Ellis in folder 10-11 writes about the need for more African American staff. Folder 19-1
has information on plans for recruiting Hispanic workers.
There is a little bit in the collection about the international aspects of Prison Fellowship. The
possibility of developing prison ministries in other countries is discussed in folder 14-2. Folder
11-3 has a memo on the opportunity to begin some work in Canada.
PF's first program was the Washington Seminar, during which inmates would come to the
nation's capital for training, fellowship, encouragement and prayer. Folder 18-2 contains a great
deal of correspondence and other documents which show how a typical seminar was planned, the
kind of details that had to be taken care of, the coordination necessary with the individual prisons
that the attendees came from, and the stress laid on the necessity of having separate seminars for
men and women. Folder 17-2 has follow-up information on some of the people who attended the
first seminars. Folder 22-1 has reports on some early seminars.
Eventually PF began holding seminars in prisons, seminars that included worship. This
collection contains numerous reports about the outcomes of specific meetings, such as the one
held at the Alderson Prison for women in West Virginia (12-2, 22-1 and 22-2). Additional
reports can be found, among other places, in folders 11-3, 19-1, 19-3, 21-6. PF's investigation of
the possibility of starting halfway houses for parolees is described in folders 14-2, 14-5 and 19-1.
One activity that PF considered early in its history was the supplying of chaplains for prisons.
Folder 12-3 has a memo on the advantages and disadvantages of this approach. PF did begin to
supply chaplains for the federal prison in Memphis and folders 10-11 and 20-3 contain reports on
how this worked and plans for future use of chaplains. See also folder 22-1.
Very early in its history PF developed a system of regional directors who were responsible for the
organization's activities (recruitment of volunteers, visiting prisons, holding seminars, etc.) in
their area. Several folders document the typical activities of these men and women and the ups
and downs of their relationships with both the prison system and PF's national headquarters
(folders 11-1, 13-9, 18-8, 19-3).
Because Colson was the founder and first president of PF as well as its most prominent speaker
and writer, much of the information in the files deals with his activities. Letters and memos
about the best way Colson could use his time and energy for PF can be found in almost every
folder. Memos in folder 11-1, for example, describe his contacts with various national leaders.
Folder 10-12 has information on promotion tours he undertook for his book Life Sentence and
reports on visits to PF supporters and to prisons in Michigan, Montana, and Washington. Folder
19-2 has suggestions on possible interviews for Colson and areas where he should get involved.
Folders 10-12, 14-2, 16-6, 16-7, and 17-11, among others, have memos from Colson aides such
as Mike Cromartie, David Bovenizer and David Eno on possible speaking engagements. Folder
11-2 contains reports from Colson on some of his trips. Folder 17-11 includes notes discussing
the possibility of Colson appearing on the Joe Franklin television show with Richard Nixon.
Folder 17-3 contains some notes on possible responses by Colson to questions from reporters
about comments by Colson in Gordon Liddy's autobiography. A memo in folder 18-9 concerns
Colson's attitude toward honorary degrees and a description of his own academic career.
Inevitably, reports by PF staff on seminars they led in different prisons also include comments on
the facilities, inmates, staff and morale of each institution. Throughout the folders are candid
comments about prisons, wardens, guards, chaplains. Folder 11-3 contains descriptions of PF's
relations with various chaplains and prison officials around the country and the efforts to begin
programs in certain institutions. Similar reports on specific institutions or individual prisoners in
Tennessee, Michigan, Montana, Washington, and New Mexico are in folders 10-11, 10-12, and
14-2. Other reports are in folders 13-7, 13-9, 18-2, 19-1, 19-3. Folder 11-3 has a report on the
planning of a retreat for chaplains. There are also many memos about the prison systems in
various states or nationwide. Folder 12-2 has an analysis made at the start of PF's ministry of the
needs of prisoners, guards, the local community, etc. Folder 10-12 includes a discussion of
Texas jails, a report on prison riots in Illinois in 1978, and a discussion of the U.S. prison
systems. A report on a riot in a New Mexico prison can be found in folder 17-8. Other reports
on crime and justice in America are in folders 14-2, 16-6, and 16-7. PF's involvement in prison
reform, including the possibilities of lobbying for legislation, can be traced in reports and notes
in folders 10-12, 13-8, 14-2, 14-5, 16-6, 16-7, 18-7 and 20-2. Daniel Van Ness wrote several of
the memos in folder 18-7 on prison reform. Folder 10-12 also has a memo on PF's stand on
capital punishment and folder 17-9 a report on racism and discrimination in the United States.
Folder 14-2 also has some notes on the involvement of the Christian in politics and folder 20-11
has a report on how increasing demands for tax cuts could affect the prison system.
Prison Fellowship had a variety of constituencies: prisoners and their families, volunteers,
financial donors (including foundations), and churches. The computer generated correspondence
in folders 10-1 to 10-10 and 12-6 to 13-6 contains form letters sent to various groups for various
purposes. There are letters by Colson, Veerman, Loux and PF's regional directors inviting people
to seminars, keeping them in touch with PF, thank you notes, letters to inmates involved in PF's
work, etc. Other material relating to constituents include: Loux's meetings with donors (folder
10-12); discussion of appreciation gifts that could be given to large donors (folder 11-1); a
volunteers manual (folder 12-2); the script of the program Somebody Cares which was intended
to explain PF's work; case histories of individual prisoners (folder 13-7); policy statement on
mass mailings (folder 17-9); reports on inmates who had attended the Washington seminars
(folder 18-2); reports about recruiting volunteers and developing a Hispanic ministry (folder 19-1); guidelines for working with volunteers (folder 19-3); and reports on foundations (folder 19-5). Throughout the files are testimonies of prisoners describing how they became Christians and
their growth in the Christian life. Folders 14-1 and 14-2 contains the correspondence of the
editor of Jubilee, which was the organization's newsletter and went out to all its supporters.
Besides prison chaplains, there were numerous Christian organizations involved mainly or
partially in prison ministry and there is much correspondence about how to cooperate and co-exist with these. Reports on the work of other prison ministries can be found throughout the
collection. For example, folders 11-1, 11-3, and 19-3 contain information on other ministries.
Folder 13-7 has information on Hispanic ministries. There are also reports on PF's relationships
with other Christian organizations not involved directly in prison work. Folder 18-6 has a copy
of Colson's testimony at the 1981 Billy Graham Baltimore crusade and folder 11-1 has additional
information on relations with the BGEA. There are reports on contacts with many other
Christian organizations and leaders such as Christianity Today International (folder 18-6), Jerry Falwell
(folder 18-6), John Perkins (folder 13-8), the PTL Club (folders 19-2, 18-6), Francis Schaeffer
(folder 13-8), C. Davis Weyerhauser (folder 17-11), and the editors of the Wittenburg Door
(folder 13-8).
Series: II. Executive Officers
Arrangement: Two subseries - the files of Charles Colson and the files of Gordon Loux. These
are described in more detail in the subseries descriptions below.
Date Range: 1965-1989 (only one item from 1965, the rest 1974 or later)
Volume: 16.4 cubic feet
Boxes: 23-63
Geographic coverage: Mainly the United States, with a few documents relating to other
countries
Subjects: Prison Fellowship, Justice Fellowship, criminal justice in the United States,
volunteers, the spiritual and social needs of prisoners and their families, Christian social action.
Notes: This series consists of the files of the chief executive officers of Prison Fellowship - the
president, executive vice president, etc.
Subseries: A. Charles W. Colson
Subsubseries: 1. General
Arrangement: Alphabetical by key word in folder titles
Date Range: 1979-1989
Volume: 1.6
Boxes: 23-27
Geographic coverage: United States
Type of documents: Memos, clippings, reports, correspondence, schedules
Correspondents: Prison Fellowship staff, leaders of Christian organizations, prominent
politicians, (particularly Republicans) of both parties, supporters of Prison Fellowship
Subjects: Setting of policy for PF and a critique of the way its programs were implemented;
discussion of the organization's needs and personnel; the criminal justice system and the need for
a greater application of Christian values in it as well as the larger society; the meaning of living
one's Christian faith in the world; the Republican Party; the Watergate crisis and the resignation
of President Richard Nixon; responses to critiques of his articles and speeches
Notes: These records are a somewhat miscellaneous set of folders that relate mainly to Colson's
activities as leader of Prison Fellowship. Several boxes of files not as directly related to PF more
concerned with his writing and speeches on the Christian faith and Christianity and culture are in
his personal papers in Collection 275. Because these two areas of his life are so interwoven, the
dividing line between them as far as files are concerned is arbitrary and was established by the
archivist.
The development of Prison Fellowship's programs and personnel are the main topic for several
folders of memos from Colson to Loux in Box 23 from the years 1979 to 1982. They cover most
aspects of the organization's work from broad policy discussion to details of the day-to-day
work. There are also in the same box several folders outlining Colson's schedule during these
early years of PF and readings on criminal justice. Folders 24-3 through 27-1 consist of what is
called Colson's Central Files for late 1988 and 1989 - his correspondence with supporters of
Prison Fellowship, officials of the prison system, individuals with praise or criticism of him or
Prison Fellowship, personal friends, political leaders and commentators. Usually Colson's letter
is stapled to the letter or letters to which he is responding. Usually the letters relate to the
specific work or needs of PF or more generally to living the Christian life, the place of Christian
values and beliefs in society, or the political, social or moral situation in the United States.
These files are very like the liaison files described in the next subseries, except that they only
contain Colson's letters (and those of his correspondents), deal with somewhat broader topics,
and are arranged chronologically instead of alphabetically by individual.

correspondents, intended to give an idea of type of people included.)
Subjects: The activities, needs, and future plans of Prison Fellowship; the needs and concerns of
prisoners and the efforts of individual prisoners for pardon or parole; Christianity in American
society
Notes: Files contain correspondence with financial supporters of PF and others actively involved
in its ministry; Colson's political friends and associates; former PF staff, government officials,
especially those involved in prison administration on a state and federal level; leaders of other
Christian organizations and groups. In many cases the files contain correspondence from other
PF staffers with the subject of the file and sometimes the file does not contain any
correspondence from Colson himself. In general, the files represent people (or in a few cases
organizations) that are significant to the work of Prison Fellowship and the efforts of Colson and
the organization to stay in touch with them.
Subseries: B. Gordon Loux
Arrangement: Alphabetical by title
Date Range: 1976-1987
Volume: 4.6 cubic feet
Boxes: 52-63
Geographic coverage: United States, some material on trips to Australia, England, Germany,
India, Ireland, Kenya, Netherlands, New Zealand, Sri Lanka
Type of documents: Correspondence, memos, reports, budgets, minutes of meetings, manuals,
budgets, newspaper clippings, address lists, statistics
Correspondents: PF staff, consultants, fund raisers, construction companies, donors, leaders of
Christian organizations
Subjects: Reports and statistics on PF's ministry, PF's day-to-day operation and long range
planning, fund-raising, new buildings (including headquarters buildings), development of PF
International, the film Born Again, prison reform
Notes: Loux as executive vice president and later president of PF was in effect the leader of the
organization on the operational level and his files reflect this. In 1983, Prison Fellowship
purchased the Bowman estate in Reston, Virginia, and over the next two years renovated the
existing mansion on the estate to serve as a hospitality center (renamed the Arthur S. DeMoss
House) and built an office building for the Fellowship. Loux's files contain voluminous
documentation on the negotiations for purchase of the property, the planning of the new
buildings, the relations with neighbors, and the fund-raising efforts involved. Most of the files
on this effort are in boxes 53 through 56. (See also folder 148-4.) Other files reflect Loux's
responsibilities for the oversight, administration and planning of the organization. Boxes 60 to
61 contain the memos he sent to senior staff on all aspects of Prison Fellowship's ministry and
box 58 includes his files of "Decision papers" memos on various proposed major and minor
policy changes which were circulated to staff for their written comments. Both planning and
application are reflected in folder 57-8, which contains memos and other documents on PF's
planning to develop a computer system that would meet its need, as well as weekly reports on the
introduction and activities of the system. The operations of Prison Fellowship in the 1980s and
planned future development are reflected in the strategic plans which can be found in box 61.
Also of interest in this regard is the folder on reorganization of the Fellowship structure in box 61
and the file on the beginnings of Prison Fellowship International in box 61. The day-to-day
operations are reflected in such materials as the field manual in box 59 and the weekly statistics
and weekly reports from senior staff in boxes 62 and 63. Box 63 also contain reports, schedules
and other documents on Loux's travel on behalf of the organization within the United States and
internationally. He also represented the organization at the meetings of other Christian
organizations, such as Consultation 83, A Christian Response to Human Need in folder 58-7
(part of the Wheaton '83 congress) and the Lausanne Committee in folder 59-8.

federal and state prisons, the creation of Angel Tree, in-prison seminars, marriage seminars in the

a great deal of information in particular about three PF projects: the in-prison seminars in which
prisoners received training in Bible study and the Christian life; the Community Service
Projects, in which prisoners and volunteers did useful work for the needy, such as refurbishing
housing; and the Crisis in Incarceration Marriage Seminars

housing ministries, fellowship support groups for prisoners and their families, the handbook
given to inmates who attended the Washington DC Seminar, procedure manuals for in-prison

conference or seminar files contain the handouts given at various PF seminars, as well as other
items related to a particular conference, such as schedule, minutes, or evaluations. What is
included for each meeting varies widely. There are folders for the training of new state directors
and area directors, the DC seminars, meetings of regional volunteer and staff, and the training
and honoring of volunteers.
Exceptional items: Particularly interesting is the material in box 119, which contains staff
evaluations in some detail of the in-prison seminars, Washington seminar, volunteer and staff
training programs. These provide a detailed and informed view of PF's work in 1983.

state and federal correctional institutions throughout the United States. These meetings, in which
volunteers from the local community, led by one or more persons experienced in prison ministry,
were called in-prison seminars and were intended to lead inmates to Jesus Christ as their savior
and to help them learn how to lead a Christian life and lead other people to Christ. The seminars
had titles such as "Loving others," "Prison survival," and "You are somebody." Almost all

inmates to work on some project helpful to local communities. This usually involved
refurbishing abandoned or dilapidated buildings so that they could be used again. The project
were usually under the direction of a local host church. Boxes 141 and 142 contain some files
from the PF central office on the organization and planning of CSPs nationwide. The rest of the
files in boxes 142 through 148 are about individual projects, almost all of which were in urban
environments. Some folders contain only a few notes, others are thick with correspondence, lists
of participants, evaluations by participating staff and volunteers, and local newspaper coverage of
the project.
Exceptional items: Folder 141-17 contains endorsements of community service projects from

Correspondents: Elizabeth Morgan
Subjects: Juvenile, Elizabeth Morgan, Gary Gilmore, ex-convicts, criminal justice, prison

were used by various staff people at Prison Fellowship as reference. The files in boxes 152
through 156 consist of material arranged by topics, although since most of the materials were
loose, the archivist in most cases supplied the folder title. Each folder contains a wide range of
printed materials (articles, newspaper reports, booklets, transcripts, legal reports, etc.) related to
various aspects of criminal justice, including capital punishment, parole procedures, the court
system, the prison system. Boxes 157 through 176 contain almost exclusively newspaper and

magazine articles arranged alphabetically by the title of the magazine. All of the articles from a
particular magazine are together in one or two folders.

jail because she refused to allow her daughter to go on court ordered overnight visits to her ex-husband. She accused her husband of sexual abuse of the child and went to jail rather than tell

Fellowship's and Charles Colson involvement, as well as Morgan's release by an act of
Congress.

criminals, capital punishment
Notes: The documents in this series were generated by the staff and associates of JF in the
process of setting up Justice Fellowship as a think tank and resource organization for reform of
the criminal justice system. These boxes include budgets, planning documents, quarterly and
yearly reports (box 181), a five year plan (box 180), surveys and analysis of JF by outside
consultants (see, for example, folder 179-15), the quarterly newsletter of the Fellowship (folder
179-6 to 179-8). Folders 178-6 to 179-1 contain files about a special task force that the
Fellowship put together to examine the problem of overcrowding in Florida prisons and make a
report to the governor.

had been executed. Folder 181-12 contains a draft of the book by Van Ness, "Victims and
Offenders", which laid out the principles of restorative justice. (The book was published in 1986
by InterVarsity Press under the title, Crime and Its Victims.
Subseries: B. Restorative Justice Handbooks
Arrangement: Reference and general materials on restorative justice are in boxes 182-185,
materials on handbook I (dealing with theory) are boxes 185-186, materials on handbook II
(dealing with principles) are in boxes 187-191; materials about handbook III (program models)
are in box 192. Folders in each of these subgroups are arranged alphabetically, by significant
words in the title. The series appeared to be roughly in this order when received, but the archivist
had to arrange some folders according to what seemed a logical place for them to go.
Date Range: 1986-1990
Volume: 4.2 cubic feet
Boxes: 182-192
Geographic coverage: United States.
Type of documents: Drafts of chapters, memos, correspondence, comments on the handbooks
by a variety of reviewers (not book reviewers but individuals selected to give their comments
before publication)
Subjects: Victims of crime, rehabilitation of criminals, criminal justice reform
Notes: Justice Fellowship staff, under the leadership of Daniel Van Ness were concerned with
practical ways to make restorative justice a practical approach to criminal justice reform.
Restorative justice put the focus of concern in criminal justice on restoring the welfare of the
victim as well as the punishment and rehabilitation of the criminal. The documents in this
subseries illustrate how the staff, through work session, discussion and correspondence with
legal and religious leaders and thinkers, attempted to clarify the theory of restorative justice and
create a series of handbooks for use at grass roots levels and higher to apply the theory to
criminal justice in the United States. The collection does not have copies of the actual finished
handbooks and there is little in the collection about their application in practice. Besides the
memos and correspondence of the staff and the reviewers of the material, there are many xeroxes
of articles throughout the subseries on crime, its effect on victims, and the ways to heal the
effects of crime. See, for example, folders 184-3 and 184-4.
Provenance
The materials for this collection were received by the Center in May and June 1984, August
1985, and October 1991 from Prison Fellowship Ministries.
