Director's Message:
Embracing the Year of Evolution
Dear Friends,
As we step boldly into 2025, we proclaim it the Year of Evolution—a year of rebirth, growth, and new horizons.
Evolution requires courage, resilience, and a strong belief in the possibilities that lie ahead. It inspires us to set bolder goals, reach greater heights, and navigate the uncharted with confidence and determination.
The JPC team—comprising myself, the board of directors, and our dedicated staff—plans to intentionally cultivate seeds of hope, progress, and unity throughout this year. We are eager to remain open to diverse possibilities, embrace innovative perspectives, and fully commit to creating brighter futures for the formerly incarcerated community and their families.
Together, we can make 2025 a year when change isn’t just an aspiration but a movement of renewal, purpose, and transformation.
Here’s to rebirth. Here’s to evolution. Here’s to 2025.
With gratitude and hope,
Shermond Reid
Executive Director
