Our Response
The best way that you can get involved is by becoming an 'advocate'. As an advocate for fellow Christians in prison you can encourage them by writing to them and to officials on their behalf.
When a prisoner receives a letter, whether they can read it or not, they know that someone cares. Although mail may be opened, censored or blocked, it indicates to the authorities that we are aware of that Christian's situation, which may result in better treatment for the prisoner.
