The article examines the main principles and forms of relations between the State criminal and executive Service of Ukraine and religious organizations. The role of religion in the correction and resocialization of convicts is highlighted. The principles and forms of involvement of religious organizations in working with convicts are considered. The international and Ukrainian regulatory framework, which regulates the activities of religious organizations in penal institutions and providing for the religious needs of prisoners, has been analyzed. It was concluded that Ukrainian legislation and state policy as a whole contribute to ensuring the rights of religious prisoners and meeting their religious needs. Problematic issues in this field and prospects for the development of relations between the penitentiary system and the church are identified.
