About Us
Mission: 

To serve the academic, physical, social & emotional, and spiritual needs of Danbury’s at-risk youth, and by extension their families, for the glory of God.

Programs: 

Jericho Partnership's key ministries: Christ-centered 1:1 and small-group mentoring and academic support programs (Tutoring, Reading Buddies, Summer Learning Program, and Project-based Learning/Innovation Workshops); a thriving food pantry where Jericho combats food insecurity among Danbury's most vulnerable communities; life-preparedness workshops through which Jericho addresses students' social needs (leadership development, job skills, nutrition, health & wellness); and Samaritan Health Center, Jericho's ministry partner where families not eligible for health insurance can receive high-quality pediatric healthcare.  

Why Work For Us?: 

The Danbury community matters and  working at Jericho Partnership, you'll see just how much you matter to the community.  Jericho Partnership, with less than 15 employees, and over 1,000 individuals, groups, and families that serve anywhere from 3 hours per week to 3 days per month to a week per year, Jericho is a volunteer-powered organization.  Working together side by side each week, staff and volunteers serve the most vulnerable in the greater Danbury community.  And it all starts from the top down—having a leader that demonstrates their love for Jesus Christ by pitching in to assist in whatever capacity is necessary to serve those in need, having a bias for action and commitment to pray regularly for staff, partners, families, and volunteers..
