The Kindway Open

Kindway is a mentoring and discipleship ministry that invests in the lives of those impacted by incarceration. Our staff and team of over 90 Volunteers work to develop men and women for success at three Ohio prisons at least one year before and one year after release. 

Nationwide, the rate of return to prison within the first three years is over 50%. In Ohio, that rate is over 30%. 

Since 2010, 160 Kindway alumni have returned to the Columbus area. Of those who have completed the entire two year EMBARK program, only two have returned to prison.

We thank God for your investement into Kindway as we continue: Empowering People | Restoring Hope | Honoring God.
