Biographical / Historical
A Prison Service Committee was established by the AFSC in 1943 to provide a spiritual ministry and practical assistance to some of the over 6000 men who were imprisoned for the sake of conscience. The work with conscientious objectors in prison led to an interest in working for basic improvements in the care and treatment of all prisoners and to the establishment of prison visitation programs throughout the country.
