Prisoner Release Ministry, Inc.

My name is Marissa D. Draper, and I am the new Executive Director of Prisoner Release Ministry, Inc. Roger Logue and Diane Vlasak did a wonderful job of training me to take over the agency, and I am proud to continue on the business in their name. Roger decided to retire and unfortunately Diane became ill, and I am sad to say she is no longer with us, but instead she is with the Lord. Roger has pu

t forth great effort in showing me the ins and outs of the business and together, we will continue the work of the agency in the Lord’s name. Prisoner Release Ministry, Inc. has helped over 15,000 offenders and ex-offenders find employment when they have been released from prison or jail and they have earned between $50,000,000 and $60,000,000 million dollars. We have been able to provide these services at no cost to the clients or the employers, because we have been able to obtain grants (Title XX) (We have worked with the Illinois Department of Corrections and the Illinois Department of Human Services) that gives us 3 dollars for every dollar we receive in donations. This agency would not be possible without the support of local churches, companies, and residents who provide valuable, monetary donations and services so that we can support all ex-offenders in our communities upon their release from prison or jail in the search for job security of each individual.
