Jordyn joined Seniors in their HS History class Thinking Globally Acting Locally as part of their year-long study of informed citizenship, sustainability, and equitable community development. In the presentation, Jordyn discussed how Drive Change uses a comprehensive business model to promote job sustainability and create ethical workplaces.
 
This summer’s racial and social justice movement increased citizen awareness of systemic issues hindering the American justice system. To combat these carceral system inequities, Jordyn’s work at Drive Change is centered on actively promoting restorative justice and ensuring young, formerly-incarcerated BIPOC people can overcome employment barriers to succeed professionally.

We thank Jordyn for joining our class and are always glad to welcome alumni back to share their professional expertise with the Dalton community!
