Volunteering

If you have been considering joining our family of volunteers, we are happy to inform you that we have an upcoming prison visit event on July 21, 2018.

About Thresholds

Founded in 1975, Thresholds is a nonprofit organization that teaches a six-step decision-making course to inmates in Delaware County. Better decision-making empowers an inmate to be more productive upon returning to the community.

Become a Volunteer

We seek caring individuals who can commit to meeting with an inmate for 1-2 hours each week, for a 7-week teaching cycle. We currently serve individuals at SCI Chester, George Hill Correctional Facility and at the Juvenile Detention Center in Lima. The environment is safe and extremely well supervised. No previous experience or special education is needed.

Volunteer Training

Volunteer Training is very thorough, and a prerequisite to working with inmates. The $35 registration fee covers the cost of training materials, plus a delicious continental breakfast and lunch on both days. Pre-registration is required.

If you are interested in joining us for the prison visit, please review  this <link> for sign-up and information.
