Research shows writing loved ones who are in prison is beneficial. It aids in their social adjustment and emotional well-being and several studies suggest the prisoner's mental health is dependent on his contact with the outside world. Another finding is that continued contact with friends and family serves as a counter-force to prison institutionalization, reducing the likeliness of repeat offense. And very important is life after prison. Studies show returning prisoners who were employed after release relied largely on personal connections - family, friends, former employers - to find their jobs. Social connections that are maintained during the period of incarceration can be an important resource in helping released prisoners achieve positive post-release outcomes.

Here are some words from former inmates relating to letters:

“Prison has taught me the true meaning of loneliness - what it means to be separated from everything that's real... My struggle is not to become a product of this environment...” (G.S., Malone, FL)

“Yes, I'm in prison, and yes, I'm guilty. I think I've paid my debt to society and definitely have a new attitude and outlook on life! I need new friends and a new environment to start my life anew.” (T.W., Lake City, FL)

“It gets lonely in here at times. I thought I had a lot of friends. But when something bad happens, like going to prison, you come to realize those so-called "friends" weren't friends at all…” (F.P., Long Beach, CA)

“Nobody cares. You should see the faces of the hundreds of men who wait expectantly day after day at mail-call…” (H.W., Atmore, AL)

“I committed a costly mistake as a teenager which consequently led to my incarceration, and now my loneliness has become a prison within a prison.” (L.C., Raiford, FL)

"The worst solitude is to be destitute of a sincere friendship!" (R.L., Raiford, FL)

“I'm terribly lonely. Whenever the mailman passes my door, which is often, my heart sinks to new lows.” (R.V., Coalinga, CA)
