J. U.S.T. helps inmates of the DuPage County Correctional Center return to our community by offering Spiritual Enrichment, Addiction Recovery, Vocational and Life Skills through classes and programs, hundreds of volunteers and the support of our community. As a board member, I have seen it first hand. It is a great organization that is doing great work for those who want and need it.
JUST of DuPage is an organization that has more barriers then other non-profits. They are confined within a jail and because of this they are limited to what they can or can not do. It is difficult for them to publish press releases, impossible to take pictures of programs in action, and everything they do must be pre-approved by the jail which they serve. Despite these difficulties, it is amazing to see that they continue to survive and serve. Over 25 years of changing lives for the better, working within the walls of the DuPage County Jail. Kudos to JUST for their perseverance and dedication to the cause.
