Women’s Prisons' visits in Gatesville Texas
Sisters on the inside really appreciate the company and presence of their fellow brothers and sisters. We have Salaam’s first sister volunteer from Houston scheduled to visit Murray and Riverside female prisons in Gatesville September 6, 2025. Currently Br Yusuf serves 12pm-4pm:
First and Third Saturdays: Murray Unit and Riverside, one of Crain’s Satellite
Second and Fourth Saturdays: Three Crain’s Satellites: Sycamore, Valley and Reception
Alternate Mondays: Hilltop and O’ Daniel as soon as unit chaplain schedules in September 2025.

Female Units Service Model:Our service model is to pay Muslim Chaplain serving female unit like Harris and Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office pays to their Staff Chaplains. We seek Islamic Centers or individuals to sponsor $2,500 yearly. Kileen Islamic Center is the only Masjid sponsoring a unit, $200/month. We dream of having a Muslim Chaplain in every Texas prison, like California.
Volunteer Services Progression
Weekly presence is the key for Chaplaincy and Officers to cooperate and facilitate our Taleem services. Salaam Reentry was able to start Taleem services on Monday May 5, 2024 through the efforts of Br. Joseph Clark and our founder.
Since then, the torch has been passed to Br. Yusuf Abdul Samad with Killeen Islamic Center.We faced difficulty getting started, especially with getting volunteers approved to serve on the inside. Yusuf has friends inside now that they realize our contribution is real and unmatched: Sensitive Mentors And Responsive Thinkers. Patience paid off and things turned around in March 2025 with two new unit Chaplains, who have been more cooperative and accessible. They allowed two volunteer brothers to provide dates to sisters in Ramadan, held Eid Prayers, and served them an Eid Feast.
