Mission Statement

THE GRIP TRAINING INSTITUTE IS A COMMUNITY-BASED NON-PROFIT SERVING INCARCERATED AND FORMERLY INCARCERATED PEOPLE AND THOSE WHO HAVE SURVIVED VIOLENCE. GRIP STANDS FOR GUIDING RAGE INTO POWER, WHICH IS THE NAME OF OUR FLAGSHIP PROGRAM, AN EVIDENCE-BASED METHODOLOGY DEVELOPED OVER 25 YEARS OF WORK WITH THOUSANDS OF INCARCERATED PEOPLE AND MANY VICTIMS/SURVIVORS. ROOTED IN RESTORATIVE JUSTICE PRINCIPLES, THE PROGRAM'S TRAUMA-INFORMED MODEL INTEGRATES CUTTING-EDGE NEUROSCIENCE RESEARCH. STUDENTS ENGAGE IN A YEARLONG, IN-DEPTH JOURNEY TO COMPREHEND THE ORIGINS OF THEIR VIOLENCE AND DEVELOP SKILLS TO TRACK AND MANAGE STRONG IMPULSES RATHER THAN ACTING OUT IN HARMFUL WAYS. THEY TRANSFORM DESTRUCTIVE BELIEFS AND BEHAVIORS INTO AN ATTITUDE OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE THAT PREVENTS RE-VICTIMIZATION.
