Volunteers are the backbone to the success of Concord Prison Outreach. In early June, we gathered to celebrate those who have contributed through volunteering through programs, donating, attending events, assembling holiday gift bags, spreading the word, and simply being a part of our community.
On April 19, 2026, Concord celebrated the 251st anniversary of the Battles of Concord and Lexington, where the American fight for independence began.
This Easter, we are proud to support 57 children with a loved one in the B.R.A.V.E. Unit at NCCI. The B.R.A.V.E. Unit is a program focused on personal growth, accountability, and strengthening family relationships.
Thanks to the First Parish in Bedford, MA, for kicking off the spring with assembling 64 backpacks in our WelcomePack program.
Join CPO’s Board Chair, Liz Rust, along with special guests Osa Osagie, Ellie DiMauro, Hema Narayan, and Carley Castro as they discuss Women’s History Month.
Each gift bag is a reminder that there are people “outside the walls” who think of their incarcerated neighbors and wish them a better future, both while they are in prison and after release.
Join CPO’s Executive Director, Sam Williams, along with special guests Osa Osagie, Liz Rust, and Joe Palumbo, as they discuss Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity.
Listen as Sam Williams and guest Harry Bartlett explore the legacy of Malcolm X through the lens of his experience with incarceration and education in prison.
Concord Prison Outreach has been selected as a recipient of a Cummings Foundation grant, receiving $150,000 over the next three years. This remarkable investment in our work is both an honor and a powerful vote of confidence in the programs we deliver behind prison walls.
On May 18th, 2025, Concord Prison Outreach and members of the community gathered to recognize the lives of veterans buried at the Concord Reformatory Prison Cemetery. Men laid to rest between 1878 and 1996, whose bodies were never claimed by family, but whose stories deserve to be remembered.
