Interested in volunteering at Baltimore County Department of Corrections (BCDC)?

Volunteers play an important role by working alongside staff to support key programs such as Re-entry and Rehabilitative Services, Education and Development, and Religious and Faith-Based Programs. The time and skills volunteers contribute help prepare individuals for successful reentry as productive members of our Baltimore County communities and beyond. We believe volunteering is both meaningful and rewarding, and we look forward to partnering with you.
