All of the parish prisons in Louisiana have daily recreation, they have TVs, they have some form of book exchange, others have a library - but boredom is an issue. The inmate that can compartmentalize their situation and block out the surroundings can get into a meaningful routine of self-improvement and actually come out of there a better, more rounded individual. You help by sending in reading material. That is one of the main reasons InmateAid exists is to make the inmate's time go by faster. Send magazines and books, it is a fantastic way for an inmate to "escape".
