Medical Care
Former In-mates are many atimes in dire deed of essential medical, dental, and mental health services. Such services are offered by our correction facilities unto in-mates. But ones released, former in-mates find it difficult to acquire these life-saving medical support. We prioritised this essential under-taking so as to enabled released prisoners appreciate their 'after (prison) life.
With the help of care-giving foundations and health-providers, we, through medical camps provide free medical services. Health promotion is emphasized through counseling provided during examinations, education about the effects of medications, infectious disease prevention and education, and chronic care clinics for conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and hypertension.
Mental Health
The organisation provides some mental health treatment through volunteer counsellors.
Psychologists are available for formal counseling and treatment on an individual or group basis during free medical camps and occassional visits to our centre.
We recognizes that incarceration can be stressful for both inmates and their family members. Consequently, the organ works diligently to provide education to care-givers and released in-mates on suicide prevention.
Religious Programs
In as much as chaplains do facilitate religious worship and sacred scriptural studies across faith lines in addition to providing pastoral care, spiritual guidance, and counseling, we too do pay visits to prisons in the company of other religious leaders to suppliment spiritual nourishment. In support of spiritual growth, both in-mates and the released are encouraged to participate in religious observances and holy days and have access to religious materials. These are mainly donations from their corresponding faith.
Sexual and Drug Abuse Prevention
In-mates have the right to be safe from sexually abusive behavior and substance abuse. We advocate for in-mates conjugal rights. 'Love-cells' where in-mates can meet their mates. This, we are certain may reduce unnatural sexual tendancies behind bars.
