Peer Support That Inspires Real Change
The SCQ Peer-Led Inmate Support Group creates a space where incarcerated individuals support one another through mentorship, honest conversation, and shared experiences—encouraging personal growth, accountability, and preparation for a better future beyond incarceration.
Supporting Growth Inside Correctional Facilities
The SCQ Peer-Led Inmate Support Group is conducted within participating correctional facilities across the United States.
Each group operates in partnership with facility staff and volunteers who support the mission of rehabilitation and personal development. Sessions are typically held in designated program spaces within the facility where participants can engage in structured group discussions and activities.
As the program grows, Second Chance Quest continues to expand opportunities to bring the support group model to additional facilities, helping more individuals access mentorship and guidance during their incarceration.
