The NC Department of Correction is
assisted by over 6,500 community volunteers who donated
approximately 245,000 hours in 1999 in a variety of ministries
and programs such as preaching, counseling, religious
instruction, pastoral visits, tutoring, music, Alcoholics
Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, recraeation, field day events
and other special programs. Fully, the vast majority of these
dedicated individuals are devoted religious volunteers who
greatly enhance the ministry of the correctional chaplains to
both inmates and staff.
