JC is the Executive Director of Operation Resurge. Her commitment to this work is deeply personal. As a mother, she walked beside her own loved one as he journeyed through the criminal justice system and has experienced firsthand the heartbreak, frustration, and missed support opportunities that come with being pushed into the adult system too soon.
Through every court date, setback, and systemic barrier, she fought relentlessly—not just for her loved one's future, but for his dignity. She understands the pull of the streets, the weight of a criminal record, and the pain of feeling overlooked. But she also knows the power of second chances, community, and unwavering love.
Operation Resurge was born from that fight. JC now uses her experience & compassion to walk alongside other families facing similar struggles. Her mission is clear: to ensure that justice-involved youth have the opportunity to rise, rebuild, & reclaim their future.
Our Board of Directors is comprised of community leaders who are committed to advocating for youth & young adults involved with the criminal justice system and supporting families impacted by the justice system. With a shared vision for helping our younger generation realize their full potential, we bring strategic leadership and compassion to our mission. Our collective background in relevant personal experience and advocacy informs our holistic approach to addressing the needs of justice involved families.
