About Project Jason
Before June 13th, 2001, we were just an ordinary family living a peaceful, happy existence. My husband, Jim, and I worked outside the home, spent time with our two wonderful sons, attended Mass every Sunday, and enjoyed the company of family and friends. On that fateful Wednesday, our lives changed forever. Our family unit was brutally ripped apart when our oldest son, Jason, then age 19, disappeared without a trace from our driveway.

Project Jason Keys to Hope Program
Project Jason announces a new program that offers families of the missing individual websites to increase awareness of their missing loved ones. Keys to Hope will be available to all families registered for Project Jason services who do not currently have a website, Facebook page or other dedicated Internet presence for their missing family member.
