With over two million people behind
bars, the United States now has a greater percentage of
its population incarcerated than any other country. But
sooner or later, most of them will be released. What happens
then? Can these lives be turned around?
CAN PEOPLE CHANGE?
The Kintock Group believes they can. We
have been putting this belief into practice for nearly
20 years.
A NATIONAL LEADER
The Kintock Group is dedicated to helping offenders break
the cycle of crime. Founded in 1987, Kintock’s
annual revenue exceeds $38 million. With more than 420
employees, the organization serves more than 1,700 clients
a day with a full range of services, from pre-release
to successful re-integration into the community. One
of the largest community corrections providers in the
Northeast, Kintock is a nationally recognized pacesetter
and innovator in the field.
MEETING REAL NEEDS
Making the transition from offender to productive
and law-abiding citizen a daunting process. Research and
experience demonstrate that individuals whose needs are
addressed most comprehensively have the greatest chance
of achieving a successful transition. Kintock meets these
needs with a wide-range of programs and services designed
to encourage self-sufficiency, promote responsible behavior,
and prepare for entry into the workforce.
CUTTING COSTS
Positive change in our clients also yields positive
results for the agencies we serve and the communities in
which we operate. By transitioning former inmates into
residential programs, Kintock helps lessen the need for
additional government-funded prison facilities. By reducing
recidivism, we help eliminate the cost of re-incarceration.
And, as offenders become productive citizens, their taxable
income can begin to contribute to tax rolls at every level.
MEETING THE HIGHEST STANDARDS
The Kintock Group currently contracts with the Federal
Bureau of Prisons and the New Jersey Parole Board; as
well as Departments of Corrections in both Pennsylvania
and New Jersey. We adhere to the highest professional
standards, as set forth by the American Correctional
Association.
