JIFF. Inc.

Juvenile Intervention & Faith-based Follow-up (JIFF) is a unique 501(c)(3) court-referred program designed to give 10-18 year-old male and female youth involved with the juvenile justice system the skills, support, and direction necessary to break the destructive cycle of youth crime through Christ-centered intervention. Our goal is to influence the thinking, behavior, and direction of young offenders (and their siblings), helping them to pursue productive and pro-social activities instead of repeating criminal offenses

JIFF serves urban youth ages 10 – 18 by providing five programs which lend support and intervention through a focused, individualized, and holistic approach. These programs are classroom-based with an emphasis on The Six H’s: Head, Heart, Health, Home, Hire-ability, and Hobbies. Outside of the classroom, JIFF participants experience field trips, opportunities for workforce training, one-on-one time with case mentors and assistance in making daily positive steps.
