Our Story

START-OPP was incubated by the Aleph Institute, a leading non-profit focused on chaplaincy and criminal justice advocacy across North America. With over 40 years of experience, Aleph has provided essential reentry support services to thousands of returning citizens. This deep understanding of the criminal justice system and the importance of meaningful employment led to the establishment of START-OPP, dedicated to ensuring that returning citizens are equipped for success. The team comprises experts in criminal justice advocacy, business leadership, and individuals with lived experience, all committed to transforming lives.

Impact

Skills-based training significantly reduces recidivism and enhances employment opportunities. Graduates of vocational training programs are 33% less likely to reoffend and are more likely to secure gainful employment for up to 12 years post-release.
