Program : The Child’s Journey (TCJ)
Report to : Executive Director
Location : Phnom Penh
ORGANIZATION AND PROGRAM SUMMARY
Prison Fellowship Cambodia is a prison ministry which has been working in Cambodian prisons since 2001. Prisons access was initially difficult to obtain, as authorities were still very suspicious of NGO’s activities, and needless to say that. Sharing the Gospel was prohibited. PFC began by caring for the dying, feeding the hungry, treating the sick and establishing small scale education program. An agreement was signed with the Royal Cambodian Government in 2002 to continue to build and develop the organization and support for prisoners, shortly after PFC was chartered with Prison Fellowship International. As trust and relationship were built, PFC was permitted to have greater access to prisons and prisoners, to develop social services to help those leaving prison, and then to eventually work with the invisible victims of crime: the children. Permission was given to teach the Bible. Men and women began to accept Christ and were baptized. As their behavior in the prisons changed it was noted by officials, who opened the door to more Bible education and other PFC services. The purpose of The Child’s Journey (TCJ) is to intervene when a parent is incarcerated by
providing services and activities which meet the four most vital needs of children. The program pairs each enrolled child with a trained Social Worker or Caseworker who monitors the child’s health, education, safety, and spiritual growth for the duration of their parent’s incarceration.
