OUR INTRODUCTION
Our work promise to uphold the trust placed
Juvenile Uplifting Mentor Program (JUMP) is dedicated to providing a brighter future for at-risk youth in our community. Through the Community-Based Operated Resource Program (CORP), we offer evidence-based mentoring and family support services to juvenile offenders. Our program is designed to help these young people avoid future criminal activity and become productive members of society.
Here at JUMP, we believe in the power of second chances. We understand that many juvenile offenders come from difficult backgrounds and may have made poor choices. Our program is designed to provide them with the support and guidance they need to turn their lives around.
With JUMP, juvenile offenders can:
- Develop positive relationships with mentors and other caring adults
- Strengthen their ties to their families and communities
- Gain access to educational and vocational opportunities
- Learn the skills they need to make positive choices
