About Us

Incorporated in 1976, Christian Prison Ministry, Inc. dba Christian Prison Ministries, Inc.  (CPM) was created as a faith based evangelical organization designed to work exclusively with the criminal justice population.   In 1980, CPM was presented an opportunity to work on re-entry State contracts and CPM formed Bridges of America, Inc. dba Bridges International to be the management company of 13 affiliates of State contracts. 

​

In addition, CPM does international chaplaincy contracts, international missions abroad, and is the landlord for many of the affiliated entities.  These affiliated entities provide comprehensive re-entry, substance use disorder and behavioral health programming, employability skills and job placement for criminal justice offenders.

​

Both Boards are chaired by Lori Costantino-Brown, who also serves as President of CPM and all affiliated entities.
