Volunteer: Prisoner Visitation and Support - FCI Beckley

Prisoner Visitation and Support (PVS) is a volunteer visitation program for people incarcerated in federal and military prisons throughout the United States.

Our mission is to provide prisoners with regular, face to face contact from the world outside of prison to help them cope with prison life, encourage personal growth, and prepare for successful reentry into society.

Visits take place once a month and PVS visitors let the prisoners set the agenda for what they discuss. Common concerns are: lack of contact with family, untreated medical problems, work or educational plans upon release, current events, literature, etc.


This listing is for volunteers that are interested in visiting at FCI Beckley, a medium security federal prison for men in Beaver, West Virginia.
