Records of the Wisconsin division of a charitable association dedicated to the rehabilitation of former prisoners. Founded as the Society for the Friendless, the group operated as the Wisconsin Service Association beginning in 1941, and later changed its name to the Wisconsin Correctional Service. The collection consists of correspondence between Ruth Parsons Baker, superintendent of the Wisconsin division, and her father, the Reverend James Parsons, and her uncle, the Reverend Charles Parsons, both of whom were at one time head of the national organization. Also included are administrative files and individual case files.
