| SCM Student Quote:
I am currently enrolled in the School for Correctional Ministries, focusing in the ministry area of reentry leadership. I have served in the reentry field for approximately eight years and taking these courses has increased my skills, competence and efficacy. It is my belief the training should be a requirement for anyone going into prison ministry, whether it is behind the walls or aftercare. This program has blessed my life and will benefit those God will have me serve.
