Kairos Prison Ministry International, Inc. is a lay-led, interdenominational Christian nonprofit operating within the religious institutions sector. Based in Debary, Florida, the organization coordinates three programs—Kairos Inside, Kairos Outside, and Kairos Torch—that collectively reach prisoners, their families, and at-risk youth through a structured sequence of weekend experiences followed by ongoing gatherings for accountability, support, and prayer. Its work targets inmates, former inmates, and the female relatives or friends of incarcerated individuals, aiming to foster Christian community and personal transformation inside facilities and in post-incarceration contexts. The ministry operates in prisons across 35 U.S. states and ten other countries, and draws on a broad volunteer base to conduct hundreds of programs annually in prisons and communities. A notable recent development is the expansion of the Kairos Outside program, with the Lewes (Delaware) launch reported in 2018, reflecting ongoing efforts to broaden its reach beyond traditional inside-the-prison programs.
