THE SCHOOL FOR CORRECTIONAL MINISTRIES
AT WHEATON COLLEGE
The School for Correctional Ministries (SCM) Credential Program at Wheaton College equips professionals and volunteers for effective jail, prison, and reentry ministry through residential and online courses. We offer specialized training through experienced faculty for those seeking to increase their professionalism and quality of correctional ministry. Networking opportunities encourage learning from others who share the same passion and ministry.

The credential program begins in June and can be completed in one year on a part-time basis. Dimensions of Correctional Ministry, a 5-day residential course, begins June 3-8, 2013, on the campus of Wheaton College. Courses continue online and conclude with a final 5-day residential course the following June.

Meet our Graduates!
In December, 2011, Jenifer Reynolds was awarded the Reentry Leadership Credential. "What I learned through the program was more valuable than I can put into words,"shares Jenifer. "The course takes students through every aspect of prison ministry and equips people to be strategic in how they work." Since graduating, Reynolds has become executive director of DenverWorks. And, she is dreaming big for the next two to three years.
First, she plans to create a business model for DenverWorks that will provide transitional employment for people to become employment ready. Second, Reynolds is pursuing a "shared space, one-stop" model of partnership in which community organization and government entities in Denver will have offices/services in one space to meet the many needs of ex-offenders - emotional, physical, occupational, relational, etc. "God works in community," she shares. "That is the best way for us to work as well."
