CRIMINON
AROUND THE WORLD
The Criminon program operates in more than 2,100 penal institutions across some 38 nations. Staffed largely by volunteers, Criminon also trains the personnel of correctional institutions for delivery of on-site rehabilitation programs. Criminon services further extend to police departments, juvenile facilities and crime prevention programs—the full equation for a world without crime.
