As the school year comes to a close, we recognize the difference our JEVS Work Ready program makes for participants and their families. At the start of the year, our team filled 102 backpacks—giving 42 families the tools and confidence to help their students succeed. Every donation, volunteer hour, and word of encouragement helps those we serve move toward greater independence.

Today, as they walked across the stage, each diploma was a testament to their resilience and determination. These graduates overcame challenges that many can’t imagine, breaking barriers with the unwavering support of JEVS staff, their families, and our partners. Their journey highlights how vital resources and second chances are in helping individuals find paths to independence. Congratulations to the Class of 2026—we are so proud of you!
