WHAT WE DO
Our Bridging the G.A.P. (Guide. Advocate. Provide.) project (2011-present) addresses foster care in three ways:
• Guide: JLCR works with foster youth to develop life skills and personal connections
• Advocate: JLCR partners with local groups to be a voice for those who may not otherwise be heard within the foster care system
• Provide: JLCR gives away suitcases that help young adults live on their own, and allow youth to move with dignity within the foster care system
WHAT WE’VE DONE
Junior League of Cedar Rapids has been a key part of many Cedar Rapids developments:
• Butterfly Kisses
• Science Station
• Old MacDonald’s Farm at Bever Park
• Waypoint/Madge Phillips Center
• Playtime Poppy
• Leadership for Five Seasons
DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
JLCR welcomes all women who value our Mission. We are committed to inclusive environments of diverse individuals, organizations and communities.
