If you can’t find your location, select the General Inquiries link.
The listing for each Core Team includes a form to email the leaders of the Core Team so you can inquire directly about Kolbe Prison Ministries activities and volunteer opportunities in that area. “Cores Teams” are regional/local KPM leadership groups typically established for a given diocese. Core Teams are responsible for scheduling prison retreats in their area and for providing ongoing Catholic education within those prisons and jails.
