Mentors support participants in a variety of ways including developing strategies for success, providing access to information and resources, making connections within the math community, and support with education and career opportunities.
From basic computation skills to advanced number theory, we have participants over a broad spectrum of math interests – no matter your level of math skill or education, we probably have a mentee who needs you. You’ll never be alone – our extensive mentor community will be available to help develop plans for your mentee and answer any question you may have. And of course, it’s not just about the math – having a supportive mentor like you to talk things over with may just change an incarcerated individual’s life.
Please fill out the form on this page and we’ll send you further information. (Be sure to check your SPAM folder for emails from PMP)

Walker’s Bio/headshot : I am a 15 years old and was born in Texas. I have loved math ever since I started learning it in elementary school. Currently, I am taking Pre-Calculus. I saw an opportunity to give back to my community through math so I reached out to Christopher Havens (Co-founder of the PMP). Together we are excited to expand the Prison Mathematics Project and help reduce recidivism.
