CIYJ Gave Us Hope and Opportunity

As a recipient of the CIYJ scholarship Stephen, on the right, completed his masters degree in Supply Chain Management. In addition to his successful career in real estate, he also gives back by serving CIYJ as a mentor. One of the young people he actively mentors is Dalton, left. Dalton is currently enrolled in college and on target to complete his associate's degree. Maurice, center, was the winner of the first-ever CIYJ Kids Got Talent content, was an American Idol contestant and is now working as a musician pursuing his dream.

These young men are the very definition of resilience.

Honor their journey by helping the next round of justice involved young people move from Bars to Brilliance.
