Prisoner Visitation and Support

If you are sentenced to confinement, you may want to have a visit from a visitor from Prisoner Visitation and Support. PVS is a nationwide program for federal and military prisoners. Authorized by the Federal Bureau of Prisons and the Department of Defense, and sponsored by 35 national groups, PVS has volunteers across the US who regularly visit prisoners. These volunteers live near a particular prison and have access to any prisoners in that facility. PVS visitors do not do any legal work or military counseling. They simply offer friendship and trust to prisoners and communication with the outside world. The PVS national address is: PVS, 1501 Cherry St., Philadelphia, PA 19102.
