About Playfect
The Problem We're Solving
67% of released individuals are rearrested within 3 years. Most leave without credentials, a network, or a career path. PlayFect changes that.
From System to Self-Made
Through our 10-week ISSA certification program, we give formerly incarcerated individuals the training, mentorship, and job placement they need to build a real career.
One Certification at a Time
Every sponsor goes towards a participant through a full cohort cycle — certification, tutoring, CPR training, and guaranteed job placement support.
ISSA Fitness Certification
Participants earn nationally recognized ISSA Personal Trainer certifications through Sean's discounted partnership — credentials that open doors to real career opportunities.
10-Week Tutoring Program
Weekly one-on-one coaching sessions guide participants chapter by chapter — we guarantee they're prepared to pass the exam before they take it.
Life Skills & Mentorship
From financial literacy to communication, participants are matched with mentors across business, law, health, and trades to build life beyond fitness.
Job Placement Support
We don't just certify — we place. Every graduate receives hands-on support connecting their new credentials to real employment opportunities in San Diego.
Community Re-Entry
Built on relationships with halfway houses, juvenile facilities, and probation partnerships, PlayFect meets participants where they are and walks with them forward.
