Review

For over 20 years Chaplain Castillo's life has been involved with those considered "the least of these my brethren" -- the incarcerated, their families, and the staff responsible for the care and keeping of federal prisoners. Not only are interesting stories told, but valuable advice is given to Chaplains, staff, volunteers, inmates, and administration. This book provides excellent insights for prison employees . The general public will also gain a greater understanding of what it is like for the second victims of crime - the families. No other federal prison Chaplain has written about the day-to-day experiences of the religious community in prison. This topic is timely with our burgeoning prison population and as the federal government now has 91 prisons with more than 20 on the drawing board. -- Book Description
