Introduction and Recent News

Prison Fellowship Russia was formed in 2001, in close collaboration with the Russian Orthodox Church and other Christian confessions, with a focus on prison reform and rehabilitation. Currently operating in all 1,010 prisons in the nation, PF Russia impacts the lives of prisoners as well as their family members through caring outreach by volunteers and well designed programmes. Thousands of volunteers help every year in making Angel Tree, children and youth services, mentoring, restorative justice programs, and material assistance available for prisoners and their families.
