Reed Hanna has spent his entire life in and around family ministries and believes his life has been a series of building blocks preparing him to serve families of the incarcerated. As a young boy his father took him into prisons where he would sing with inmates after his dad's sermon. As a young man he was a federal marshall and experience the crimal system from both sides. Then spending time in prison himself he acquirred an understanding of what you feel and experience in prison and at the same time witnessed the effects on his own wife and children while he was away. He has a desire to help families through the prison experience and can share from personal experience. He hopes his efforts will take the fear and unknown out of the experience and assure them that it is possible to get through the whole process.

Project Jericho tries to tear down the walls of a prison experience. We are there for the person experiencing incarceration explaining the process, what to expect, what they can and can't do, and the emotions that they will experience. We are there for the family left behind. They have special needs, experiences, and emotions that need to be discussed and addresses. We are there for the children who in many times get mad and withdraw, they need special attention. Finally, we are there trying to help the person getting out of prison get back on their feet. Project Jericho tries to address the prison eperience from the view and needs of everyone affected.
