“Buddhist Prison Ministry brings the dharma to incarcerated individuals with great compassion and care, offering a path to healing, resilience, and spiritual growth in places where it’s most needed.

As the former staff chaplain for New York City’s Department of Corrections, I recognize the deep need for this work, and commend BPM and its community for showing up to honor the humanity and potential of those so often overlooked”
