The following is an appeal from a North Carolina prison inmate for secular volunteers to participate in a re-orientation program for prisoners. We're posting it here in hopes that some North Carolina residents will take advantage of this opportunity to assist secular prisoners.

 North Carolina prisons offer a community volunteer program by which volunteers from the community may come into a minimum security prison to sponsor an inmate and take him out into society for up to six hours at a time. This is referred to as a CV Pass. Read more about North Carolina Prisoner Service Opportunity
