Prisoner Visitation and Support

Prisoner Visitation and Support (pvs) recruits, trains and supports volunteer visitors to federal and military prisoners. Pvs recruits, screens and interviews volunteers to visit at the 130 federal and military prisons across the country. We provide monthly zoom and in-person training to ensure visitors can provide the best experience possible to incarcerated people. We keep our volunteer network strong with regular communications, email newsletters, and check-in calls. Pvs is largely volunteer driven, with two staff serving nearly 300 volunteers. We are the only independent, non-sectarian, nationwide organization authorized by the u.s. bureau of prisons and department of defense to visit in every prison.
