Preferred term

Judaism in prison  

Definition(s)

  • Jews make up a small minority of the population of the U.S. prison population. Partly because of their numbers, and partly because most prison personnel are not familiar with the religious and ritual requirements of Jewish inmates, it is often very difficult for observant Jews to practice their religion properly in prison.
