I'm a very recent graduate of Jericho Project. (July 14, 2023 - July 14, 2024)
The founder and his intake department staff
proved to be authentic, reliable, consistent, and sure footed in there methods to helping the chemically dependent criminal offender recover. It's the TRAINING on how to live my life from sunrise to sunset that has enabled me to find success. When you graduate you step into a career, not a job but a career. For those men who failed or were discharged, RE-APPLY you were wrong, you made a mistake , take back your lives by completing the training offered at Jericho project.If you're reading this and you know me ,then you know I experienced exactly what you experienced However,I refused to give up ,I encourage you men to re apply now before its to late.

I am an alumni of this program, I graduated on April 3rd, 2021. This program works but you will only get out what you put in. What do I mean by that? I mean by being honest with yourself about the life you have lived and the choices you have made to get you to the point in your life where change is necessary. The program is difficult for a reason: change is uncomfortable, changing your mentality and your attitude that took years to create cannot be undone so easily. I had a one year commitment and to me that’s the minimum amount of time required to start to adopt new habits and morals. The program uses physical activity (working out/ labor jobs) to teach men like myself how to provide for themselves. Without the basic discipline to be able to get up on time , to show up on time, to be presentable and speak respectably of your self and to others is something many men in the program were never taught. I can any questions anyone might have and help shed more light on any negative reviews about this program. The staff at Jericho are all alumni, the program is not government funded, they work for everything they have. If you are serious about change consider sending yourself or loved one to a this program but only if you are prepared to put in the work. In order to be someone you have never been you have to be willing to do things you’ve never done.

My Sons been in the program for two years in August! Place is not a cake walk or made easy! You’ve got to commit work hard. He’s now a mentor and a leader. I’m proud he made it through because his addiction was extremely tough on his family! Their staff is the best and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Thanks to the Owner and Staff for giving my Son that chance again to get this one more step completed before the next challenge! 5 ⭐️ s

As a graduate of this program I will say that this program is not easy or comfortable for somebody previously living a life of crime and drugs. That being said it was one of the best decisions I ever made. This place gives you the tools to be a productive member of society and teaches men to be men. It’s not meant for lazy people trying to beat a case to sit around all day. they have a high discharge and dropout rate for a good reason. If you’re not ready to work hard and work on yourself mentally physically and spiritually with brutally honest feed back then the program won’t work for you. People like myself needed this type of treatment and I’ve seen it work for many of my peers who graduated as well..

Hi my name is Fabian,I came to Jericho a 45 year old with a 6 grade education out of shape and no discipline . Jericho taught me how not to be lazy and to challenge my self. that work ethic that I learned at Jericho is the foundation that has gotten me where I am at today I have a high school diploma I continue to go to school and I am now a firefighter. my transformation started at Jericho trust the process .

I have been teaching for Five Keys School at Jericho Project for 8 years. I have seen men transform their lives at Jericho Project, spiritually, mentally, educationally, and physically. The clients at Jericho mostly come from very difficult backgrounds and have been involved in the justice system as well as addiction and criminality for much of their lives. This program is not for every man and is challenging due to it's structure, high expectations, and the trust they instill in their clients. They offer a fully accredited vocational program with top notch teachers who provide on-the-job apprenticeship and all the necessary accreditations through NCCER. I have seen men come into Jericho Project with no knowledge of the construction trades and are now making 6 figures working in San Francisco using the skills they learned at Jericho Project. Additionally, I have taught at many treatment programs in CA and in AZ and this is the most comprehensive facility I have ever experienced, offering a world class nutrition and fitness program that clients are required to participate in, multiple educational programs, including the NCCER training/classes as well as Five Keys School, and participation in the Spartan, Tough Mudder, Cross Fit and Deka to help clients socialize in a positive way. The Executive Director is, honestly, one of the greatest humans I have ever met. His dedication to saving the lives of the men who come to his program over the last 30 years is unparalleled as far as I am concerned. Many of the negative reviews of this program come from men who were discharged due to negative behavior and who could not meet the expectations of this program.

This program is for the chemically dependent criminally minded person ONLY. Those who cannot seem to get their lives together and need strict guidance and forced abstinence. It is NOT an LTORR or for those who just need a place to go to get off the street. And unless you plan on staying in SF and in their local community, there's no real benefit to completing their program other than making a change in your life. Also, be prepared for a cult-ish type experience. Once I said I didn't think JP was right for me, I was IMMEDIATELY ostracized, removed from any further interaction, and driven to the bus stop and given $40 to get wherever I needed to go. All this WITHOUT an ID, my phone, or anything else that I would need to successfully do anything in the real world. If you join and then decide its not for you, they WILL set you up for failure.

This program is not for the weak of heart if your just trying to beat a sentence than this program is not for you. This place will test and push your limits but in one year I promise you this place will make the best version of yourself that you ever thought possible I graduated from this program. Before jericho I was constantly in and out addicted and lost. This place helped me realize I'm more than that. It gave me hope inspiration and a will that could never be matched I've reached peaks higher than I could ever imagine. Now I manage an entire farming operation with many employees and it wouldn't of been possible without the help of these good men that actually cared about me. Like I said the program is not easy but it was that tough love that I needed to get me to realize that change was necessary

Thank you jericho project
