Kadampa Meditation Center Florida is the hub for the Kadampa Buddhist Prison Dharma Program in Florida State. We work together with the other 5 Kadampa centers in Florida to offer meditation classes at correctional facilities throughout the state.

We also have a supply of meditation materials – books, prayers, prayer beads, cushions, etc that can be sent into facilities at the request of inmates.

If you would like to request materials for a particular inmate or facility, please write or email KMC Florida with a request that includes the name and address of the facility, and the chaplain or inmate (including inmate ID) to whom the materials should be sent.

All inmate correspondence should be mailed to:

Kadampa Meditation Center Florida

PO Box 4037
Sarasota, Fl 34230

If you would like to donate towards the Dharma for Inmates program, please feel free to mail a donation to the above address or make an online donation:
