Second Chances. Lasting Change.
Empowering justice-involved young adults to transform their lives and communities through education, employment, and support.
WELCOME
Project Pinnacle is a 501(3)(c) non-profit organization dedicated to redirecting emerging adults between the ages of 17-25 years old, who have been charged with a non-violent felony offense for the first time. Founded by the Honorable Asha F. Jackson, our program offers participants a genuine second chance—providing life-changing resources, skill-building, mentorship, and upon successful completion, full dismissal and sealing of their charges. We don’t just believe in rehabilitation—we invest in transformation. Our participants leave with more than a clean record; they leave with purpose, self-worth, and the skills to thrive.
The Pinnacle Approach
We believe young people deserve an opportunity to reach their Pinnacle, the best version of themselves.
Our 12-month program is designed around three core principles:
- Education: GED programs, vocational certifications, financial literacy, and career planning.
- Employment: Resume building, job placement services, and professional branding workshops.
- Community Support: Monthly skill-building sessions, mentoring, social recovery initiatives, and service projects.
Each participant’s journey is rooted in accountability, healing, and growth.
