Staff & Board

JFF staff and board bring experience and expertise in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors and in education and workforce, economic, and community development. We value working in an environment that is productive, welcoming, and respectful of all people. We strive to ensure that these ideals are maintained in all of JFF’s work and seek to appreciate, understand, and incorporate diversity with respect to race, color, class, ethnicity, religion, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and veteran status.

We believe that embracing diversity improves the quality of our work and services to our partners. It helps to ensure that our practice reflects our mission, promotes a variety of perspectives, and improves our understanding of the people we serve.

Our mission and work are driven by our dedicated staff and enriched by the fact that so many of us reflect the populations that we aim to serve, those traditionally underrepresented in higher education and high-skilled jobs.
