About Us
We are committed to reducing recidivism rates
for first-time non-violent offenders.
Project Pinnacle a non-profit organization that works to provide individuals with the support and resources they need to successfully reintegrate into society.
Our team is made up of passionate individuals who believe that everyone deserves a second chance. We understand that individuals who have made mistakes in their lives often face significant challenges when trying to rebuild their lives. That’s why we are dedicated to providing a holistic approach to rehabilitation, focusing not only on the individual but also on their families and communities.
Our program is centered around three core principles: education, employment, and community support. We believe that education and vocational training are essential in helping individuals develop the skills they need to succeed. We provide access to job placement services, and ongoing support to help individuals navigate the challenges of re-entering society.
Reducing recidivism rates is not only important for the individuals we serve, but it is also critical for building safer, more prosperous communities. We believe that by helping individuals succeed, we can positively impact the lives of those around them and create a ripple effect of positive change.
At Project Pinnacle, we are committed to making a difference. Join us in our mission to reduce recidivism rates and create a brighter future for those who deserve a second chance.
Real People.
Program Participants
Judge Asha Jackson is the Founder and Presiding Judge of Project Pinnacle, a mandatory, one year in-court program for first time, non-violent offenders between the ages of 17-25 years old. Shortly after being appointed as a Judge in the DeKalb County Superior Court by Georgia Governor Nathan Deal in 2012, Judge Jackson saw an alarmingly high number of young offenders charged with non-violent offenses such as shoplifting, theft, burglary and drug possession come before her court. For Judge Jackson, there was a strong desire to stop what could become a cycle of more “seasoned criminals” from coming before her by providing these young offenders with the skills, knowledge and training to combat recidivism. Her vison came to life with the creation of Project Pinnacle.
