The Merced County Jail Ministry would like to formally announce the launch of ACE Overcomers!!
ACE Overcomers supports Merced County Jail Ministry by delivering a proven, evidence-based, and biblically grounded curriculum directly to incarcerated individuals. This partnership ensures participants receive both practical life skills and spiritual guidance as they prepare to reintegrate into their families and communities.
Our shared goal is to break cycles of trauma, reduce recidivism, and empower individuals to build healthier, more stable lives upon release.
Program Spotlight:
Overcoming a Difficult Childhood
This powerful course helps participants understand how early life experiences shape thoughts, behaviors, and emotional responses. By combining trauma-informed science with biblical principles, the program provides a clear pathway toward healing and transformation.
Participants Will Learn To:
* Understand how childhood stress impacts emotional, physical, and spiritual health
* Retrain the brain and reset the nervous system
* Overcome nervousness, depression, and self-pity
* Build healthier coping strategies and life skills
* Develop deeper, more meaningful connections with themselves, others, and God
Preparing for Life After Release
·Our programs are designed not only for the time spent inside, but for life beyond incarceration. Through continued guidance and connection to community resources, we support individuals as they transition back into society with confidence, resilience, and hope.
·Together with the Merced County Jail Ministry and our community partners, we are creating pathways to healing, restoration, and lasting change.
