The Virginia Consensus for Higher Ed. in Prison

The Virginia Consensus for Higher Education in Prison is an initiative of the Virginia Interfaith Center for Public Policy. The initiative that engages stakeholders from a variety of sectors: corrections, higher education, justice-impacted, faith, business/employers, and public officials in a process of consensus-building and strategic planning to expand access to college degree programs for incarcerated individuals in Virginia prisons. The initiative is generously funded by a $750,000 award from the Ascendium Education Group, a national leader in support for higher education in prison (HEP) initiatives.
