Volunteering in the jail
Thank you for your interest in serving in the jail. There are opportunities to serve in the jail with your faith community. The best way to get started is to read through the jail rules and fill out this application. The chaplain will contact you and invite you to the next new volunteer training. The training is the best introduction to serving in the jail. Because of the nature of this ministry, you can decide at anytime not to serve.
Volunteering in the jail does require a background check and endorsement by your faith community leader. Volunteers serving in the jail, serve only if approved by Jail Administration.
Volunteers in the jail serve in pairs. It is best to look for someone from your faith community to serve with you.
Call the chaplain at 608-785-9772 or email atChaplain@lacrossejailministry.org if you have any questions or need a printed copy of the application.
