Through our Pen Pal Program, we connect those on Missouri's death row with people across the world. People on Missouri’s death row have been turning to MADP for several years to find mentors as well as friends to write to. The potential to make a change for those inside prison by sharing these messages has a lasting positive impact for those on death row. Research has shown that those in prison who partake in pen pal programs establish and maintain positive connections outside of prison, pursue educational opportunities, seek normalization through friendship, and are less likely to reoffend.
