Located in Columbia, Manning Correctional Institution primarily houses minimum-security inmates and supports work programs both inside and outside the facility. Its lower custody level allows for structured employment training and transitional preparation, supporting the state’s broader reentry efforts.
JUMPSTART South Carolina is a faith-based nonprofit organization that equips incarcerated men and women for lasting transformation through in-prison discipleship and reentry support programs. Founded in 2008, the organization partners with churches, volunteers, and employers across South Carolina to help returning citizens rebuild their lives. Through its 40-week discipleship program, transitional housing, and job-creating social enterprises, JUMPSTART SC provides the structure, community, and accountability needed for success after incarceration. Rooted in the belief that with Christ, anyone’s future can be greater than their past, JUMPSTART South Carolina is restoring lives and strengthening communities statewide.
