Amman, Sept. 29 (Petra) - The Correction and Rehabilitation Department (CRD) participated on Tuesday in the 2026 Reading Marathon, organized by the Abdul Hameed Shoman Foundation, alongside cultural and national institutions nationwide.

According to its statement, the department said the initiative seeks to foster a culture of reading, build inmates' intellectual skills, and support their successful reintegration into society.

Prison libraries saw "strong" inmate turnout after facilities prepared a "wide" range of books and hosted cultural activities designed to encourage continuous learning and personal development.

As for its future vision, the department continues to expand its educational and cultural programs under a comprehensive rehabilitation vision that centers on human growth, viewing knowledge and awareness as essential foundations for positive behavioral change.
