About
The JN Outreach Foundation, Inc. is a local minority woman owned nonprofit multi-purpose human service corporation that offers the community members an opportunity to tap into quality and effective resources and services that will create and build a stronger foundation based on self-preservation, self-improvement, accountability, and positive contact with other diverse members of the community.
​
A healthy perspective, balance and accountability are the stepping stones to a strong foundation and are a necessity in all areas of life. If we the people are truly going to make a difference in our inner circle and our community (our surroundings) we must create, find, maintain, and impact Balance; which always equates to accountability and will lead to a healthy perspective.
JN Outreach Foundation, Inc. vows to make accountability a priority and will strive to ensure that all involved parties and participants are continually receiving and practicing humility and extending human kindness!
​
There are many resource available, yet many times people find it difficult to ask for assistance, locate services, or meet the fine print qualifications or inferred social standards. As a result, many community members miss out on great resources due to the following factors: pride, trust, confidentiality issues, fear of the unknown, and judgement.
Our goal is to meet the need, make the connection, and provide support to all participants and those within their circle.
