What is TYRO?
TYRO is the award-winning program written by the Founders of The RIDGE Project, Ron & Catherine Tijerina.

TRANSFORMING FAMILIES
Strengthening families to overcome life’s struggles by providing evidence-based programs that transform the individual and empower participants to live a life of honor, integrity and promise.
Our programs are research-driven and evidence-based. These programs walk participants through self-discovery and empower individuals to be leaders in their families, communities and workplaces. See Research.
TYRO empowers individuals to reinvent themselves. Incarcerated TYROs have had a 19.6% Recidivism Rate after three years, 97% report a strong commitment to fatherhood, and 90% report a strong feeling of hopefulness for the future
