Since 1997, the Insight Prison Project has been dedicated to reducing recidivism rates and improving public safety by conducting highly-effective in-prison rehabilitation programs that provide prisoners with the tools and life skills necessary to create durable change. Working in partnership with San Quentin State Prison, IPP conducts 19 weekly classes involving more than 300 prisoners. Our classes focus on preparing the men to become responsible and productive members of the community when they leave prison. IPP programs foster a transformational re-education process that combines victim impact accountability, emotional competency and intelligence, rational restructuring, and embodied integration. These elements bring about a shift, transforming ingrained patterns of destructive behavior into conscious, life-enhancing choices. IPP's diverse and professional teaching staff includes former prisoners. We are united by a commitment to service within the prison environment to bring about enduring behavioral change. Although IPP concentrates on in-prison rehabilitation, we actively collaborate with organizations which provide post-release services and programs. In March 2020, IPP merged into Five Keys Schools and Programs as a division of their Programs.
