Northampton County Jail
Make a difference, become a Volunteer
The Northampton County Department of Corrections offers an array of different programs to the inmate population. Volunteers have a unique value in the County Jail. They integrate those outside, with those, inside to aide in the re-entry process. If you feel a desire to volunteer your time at our institution, please contact the office of Volunteer services Coordinator Chris Gebhardt @ 610-829-7642 or email at Cgebhardt@norcopa.gov
