I didn't want to include a list of organizations in the article directly, for fear of creating a list that would attract spam. But here's an initial list that might be helpful for expanding the article in other ways or for researching the topic:

• Prison Dharma Network - a Buddhist based program founded by Fleet Maull
• National Prison Hospice Association - also by Fleet Maull, but specializing in end of life care for prison inmates
