Congratulations to Marc Abelard and William James College on receiving the Award of Excellence for Business Partner of the Year!

JRI, Marc Abelard and William James College have been collaborating on addressing the need for more diversity in the field of human services. At JRI, we knew that we wanted our staff to more closely reflect the diversity and lived experience of the clients and communities we serve. We also knew that we needed to reduce economic barriers to advancement. With William James College, we found partners that share our social justice mission, our commitment to racial equity and our dedication to culturally competent services.
