JDPCI Abuja’s support for prison apostolate is vital for promoting human dignity, fostering restorative justice, providing holistic support to inmates, and advocating for reforms within the criminal justice system. 

Inmates are often marginalized and face various challenges, including lack of access to basic needs, healthcare, and legal support. By providing support through prison apostolate, JDPCI Abuja helps alleviate their suffering and promotes their well-being.

Prison apostolate aims to promote restorative justice principles, focusing on rehabilitation and reintegration of inmates into society. JDPCI Abuja’s support can include educational programs, vocational training, counseling, and other interventions aimed at helping inmates rebuild their lives and become productive members of society upon release.

 Every person, including those incarcerated, deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. JDPCI Abuja’s involvement in prison apostolate reinforces the belief in the inherent dignity of every individual and seeks to ensure that inmates are treated humanely and with compassion.

 Many inmates experience feelings of loneliness, despair, and hopelessness. JDPCI Abuja’s support through spiritual counseling, pastoral care, and emotional support can provide comfort and help inmates find a sense of purpose and hope during their time in custody.

By engaging in prison apostolate, JDPCI Abuja also advocates for reform within the criminal justice system. This include addressing issues such as overcrowding, inadequate facilities, and the need for alternative sentencing options that prioritize rehabilitation over punitive measures.
