Mission
BCPEP serves as a natural extension of Boston College’s deeply held commitment to academic excellence and the improvement of the human condition.
BCPEP's Goal
Providing high-quality educational opportunities to students who very likely would not otherwise have access to them is reflective of the long Jesuit tradition of service to incarcerated populations. BCPEP provides educational opportunities that are very much in keeping with Boston College’s broader missions relating to affirming the value of a strong liberal arts education, and to addressing complex societal challenges while simultaneously seeking to contribute to the common good.
