About

The Mission of Criminal Justice and Mercy Ministries of Oklahoma, Inc. is to Break Generational Cycles of Incarceration.

Founded in 1994, Criminal Justice and Mercy Ministries of Oklahoma, Inc. (CJAMM) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to break the generational cycles of incarceration.

Through residential housing programs for recently incarcerated individuals, summer camps for children with justice-involved parents, and wraparound services, CJAMM focuses on reuniting parents with children while providing a foundation for reentry into the community.

Nearly half of all formerly incarcerated individuals are rearrested within one year of being released. That statistic drops dramatically when released into a stable home.

Exodus House saved me from repeating the same behaviors all over again. I learned a new lifestyle, and new tools I didn’t know before. I stepped out of my comfort zone to become a part of classes, groups, and support systems that were working for me; they kept me accountable. Many recently released people need a reintegration home like Exodus House to help them. I am a living example that this home works.
