ABOUT THE GRIP TRAINING INSTITUTE

GRIP’s perspective and the title of our 200-page coursebook isLeaving Prison Before You Get Out.” ™ Together we learn that being free it’s not just about finding oneself on the other side of the prison gate; it’s not just a geographic fact. At the heart of being free is not where you are, but who you are. We believe that nobody was born armed and dangerous, that violence is learned and that it is a tragic expression of an unmet need. Therefore, it can also be unlearned; GRIP’s methodology facilitates unlearning violent behavior to replace it with an attitude of insight, compassion and service. 

Our flagship program, GRIP (Guiding Rage Into Power), is a one-year, intensive program that guides incarcerated people through a journey of deep transformation and accountability. GRIP is a proven model for incarcerated people’s rehabilitation and healing, developed over 24 years in the California State prisons by founder Jacques Verduin, in collaboration with thousands of life-sentenced (with parole) incarcerated people.

The GRIP Training Institute is committed to building and nurturing an inclusive, equitable, respectful and accountable work environment. We welcome people from all backgrounds and walks of life. What we ask of our students inside, we ask of ourselves — to practice the GRIP tools of emotional intelligence, mindfulness, do-no-harm, and understanding the impact of our actions on others. 


ANTI-BIAS 

We are committed to breaking down systemic structures which contribute to deep inequities in our system. We continuously question our culture, climate and curriculum to ensure all members of our community are committed to being racially and culturally literate, and ultimately anti-bias change makers. 


COMPENSATION & BENEFITS 

The GRIP Training Institute offers competitive benefits, including health and dental insurance, paid holidays, paid time off, and staff retreats. Salary competitive and commensurate with experience with a range between $31.20 to $36.68/hr.
