JJAB News:

Thanks to the generous support of the community, Los Alamos JJAB was able to yet again support the school supply needs for its clients, reaching 59 students with enough left over for two substantial deliveries to the counselors of two elementary schools.

This year was a bit more difficult because all the prices were up, but the JJAB team managed to cross off almost every item on the lists they were given. There were so many deliveries coming in every day, and their conference room was a mess of supplies for a week! But the team hustled and helped implement a system to ensure it was a success.

JJAB received lots of grateful messages from the parents of clients afterward that something had been taken off their plate during this hectic (and pricey) back-to-school time.

As JJAB works to meet the ever-changing needs of youth in the community, they are deeply grateful for the community’s continued support.

Looking forward, winter is right around the corner. JJAB invites the community to consider supporting their annual winter clothing drive for youth. JJAB provides crucial support for winter jackets, boots, gloves, scarves and hats.
