The main prison accommodates more than 1,000
inmates. It also has a work Release facility, and a
Youth Center. Inmates are classified as minimum, medium
or maximum security. Thresholds generally works only
with minimum security inmates.
Chester County Prison administration, from the
warden to correction officers, is highly supportive of the
Thresholds presence and impact. Only inmates who want to
take part in the program are accepted into it.
Volunteers who want to teach in the program
receive a two-day weekend training course, similar to The
Thresholds in Delaware County program. The Thresholds 8
week cycle is taught in the fall, winter and spring. You
can choose which session you prefer.
