Introduction and Recent News

Officially chartered in 2010, Prison Fellowship Italy is dedicated to transforming the lives of victims, offenders, and the community. PF’s primary programme is the Sycamore Tree Project (STP) which brings victims and offenders together to find healing and restoration. The project will start in five regions: first in Lazio (including Rome) then Sicily, Campania, Veneto, and Lombardy. Actively supported by Catholic Charismatic Renewal (RNS) and many dedicated volunteers, PF Italy works for 'restorative justice' for those who have suffered a crime and moral and spiritual rehabilitation for offenders. More than 80 volunteers have already been trained on STP methodology.
