What kind of programs and services does JWB provide?
JWB does not directly provide services, but does allocate funding to agencies with expertise in specific program areas. Programs where JWB invests largely include prevention of child abuse and neglect through family support and parent education; subsidized childcare so that parents can go to work and provide for their children while they are prepared to begin school ready to learn to their fullest potential; and violence prevention and mentoring programs that help students stay out of trouble and succeed in school.
