Jacob's Ladder was created in 1991 specifically for gifted children who have an
extraordinary ability to excel academically but come from situations that make
it difficult for them to succeed or reach their full-potential. Jacob's Ladder
is a five year, year round, highly structured academic and life-skill, mentoring
and advocacy program with a 4-6 week summer residential program.
"I have so much to thank you for I can't possibly write it all down here. You have done so much to help me realize my potential. I believe you have given me one of the best gifts anyone is able to give. I hope that the success I continue to achieve in my life will show you how much I love you and thank you."
Jenny (former Jacob's Ladder Climber)
This site tells the story of Jacob’s Ladder, how it began, and where it is going, but beyond the history of the program, this site is about finding hope, realizing dreams, and achieving great things.
