Faith-based Unit Opens in Singapore
Last modified 2006-07-27 05:50
On 5 June 2006, PF Singapore held a commissioning ceremony for its faith-based unit, Back to Genesis. Beginning with 43 prisoners in the two week orientation period, the programme consists of two phases: an 18 month pre-release phase and a 12 month post-release phase.
The groundwork for Back to Genesis started in August 2005 with an
agreement between PF Singapore and the Singapore Prison Service to
explore creating a faith-based unit. Inmate selection began in March
2006. The goal is to have up to 100 inmates in the programme at a given
time.
