JKM's work remained centered in three core pillars of service: Self-Empowerment, Career Pathway Corridor initiatives, and Community Engagement. Across all areas, JKM served approximately 1,400 youth through healing-centered, culturally grounded, and developmentally aligned services.Self-Empowerment and Healing-Centered Engagement: JKM completed organization-wide implementation of Healing-Centered Engagement (HCE), becoming the only healing-centered certified youth-serving organization in the Twin Cities. Staff integrated HCE principles into daily programming, youth navigation, volunteer onboarding, and staff development. The Youth Engagement Squad (YES), an advisory policy- strategic planning youth group was established to expand peer leadership opportunities, enabling young people to serve as Lived Experience Pathway Advocates and Ambassadors and develop conflict mediation, communication, and leadership skills. Regular self-empowerment groups, and a variety of life-skills sessions supported youth in strengthening resilience, identity, and well-being, while individualized support addressed issues such as housing instability, family crises, school challenges, and exposure to community violence. Career Pathway Corridor Earning, Learning, and Employment Initiatives: Career Pathway Corridor programming served youth across multiple hands-on and tech-focused career experiences, including digital gaming, coding, STEM labs, content creation, sports leadership, culinary arts, and digital entrepreneurship. The implementation of the Digital gaming cohort module was implemented with support from Comcast; young people in the cohort are now participating in regional competitions in gaming. The Earning & Learning model continued to provide opportunities for youth to gain paid employment experience while building workforce readiness skills. JKM strengthened pathways to postsecondary and career opportunities through individualized assistance with first-time employment, apprenticeship exploration, FAFSA navigation, and college or training program enrollment. Planning also advanced for a redesigned career portal to increase youth access to jobs, resources, and mentor connections. Community Engagement and Violence Prevention: JKM maintained a strong daily presence at the Jimmy Lee Recreation Center, providing a consistent safe haven for youth after school, evenings, weekends, and throughout the summer. The organization expanded community-based programming focused on reducing isolation and promoting positive peer networks, belonging, and pro-social activities. Staff enhanced safety and violence-prevention efforts, including training in gun violence awareness and shooter prevention to further protect youth and support safe community spaces. JKM delivered multiple high-impact community events and services, including youth showcases, cultural activities, food distributions, and essential needs support such as transportation assistance, meals, and basic necessities for youth and families. More than 500 families were served in the holiday toy give-away partnership effort. JKM's 2024 accomplishments reflect a continued commitment to creating pathways for youth to be safe, supported, confident, and prepared for future success. Through healing-centered self-empowerment, comprehensive workforce development, and strong community engagement, JKM strengthened its service to the Rondo community and advanced long-term opportunities for Black and BIPOC youth. 760015 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 67 0 1 15 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 MN X Johnny Allen Jr 6515587815 1063 Iglehart Avenue St Paul MN 55104 Rob Stevens Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kelsey Dawson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Darryl Dixon Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Zeitchick Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Geoff Jones Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Drew Johnson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bill Hunstock Board Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jim Eret Interim Chair/Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Tricia Flowers-Jung Interim Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Johnny Allen Jr Executive Director 40.00 0.00 X 123301 0 0 123301 0 0 1 0 0 0 Focus on Success Through Education 2575 Ivy Ave E 318 Maplewood MN 55119 Mentoring Services 140724 1 29229 33129 420073 9579 482431 Program Service Revenu 611420 468789 468789 Government Contracts 611420 305377 305377 774166 8068 8068 43977 33129 42716 1261 1261 Miscellaneous 611420 4845 4845 4845 1270771 774166 0 14174 X 123301 66236 35834 21231 97051 88975 8076 5224 3995 1051 178 18977 13367 3782 1828 38682 38682 127566 127566 27000 27000 94818 94818 254700 139784 71320 43596 13751 7641 6110 65701 61554 3506 641 98590 90440 4097 4053 12303 7282 5021 8160 8160 14901 13912 989 13073 9208 2605 1260 Facilitators & Communit 215768 215768 Memberships & Subscript 19319 17990 736 593 Transportation 18910 18910 0 0 17547 4953 12594 1285342 760015 330129 195198 1231 2542 435303 311157 192827 283809 2100 9520 86816 18020 32776 68796 157972 107152 822209 782976 90043 109773 25000 23486 121641 129054 157598 107307 394282 369620 X -16143 -97428 444070 510784 427927 413356 822209 782976 -14571 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 111820 189017 432457 663636 482431 1879361 111820 189017 432457 663636 482431 1879361 483620 1395741 24 8068 8092 1980 4845 6825 1894278 2046683 0.73680 0.99880 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 27000 0 0 27000 0 Part II-B, Line 1: Senior Government Relations Specialist Contracted to help guide the legislative request for $5.7 million in general operating bonds to rebuild the Jimmy Lee Recreation Center. 86816 18020 68796 68796 Right-Of-Use Asset 107135 Other Receivables 17 107152 Lease Liability 107307 107307 X 1261271 0 1261271 9500 9500 1270771 1275842 0 1275842 9500 9500 1285342 Part X, Line 2: The Organization's activities are generally exempt from federal and state income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
