What people say

"I feel very honored to be able to work under and among some of the most talented and prestigious individuals in our field. I have always had burning passion to be a part of something bigger than myself. If I could summarize in one statement why I like working for GJR, it is one thing to want to make a difference, but it is another to be a part of the difference that is being made."

"I like working at GJR because every youth, employee, and referral source matter. We work as a team to imagine possibilities, never stop believing in what could be, and collaboratively make a difference in everyone's life even if we do not see it. Challenges are seen as areas of growth to make us stronger as a whole instead of road blocks. "

"After all these years, I remain passionate about contributing to GJR Preventative Aftercare's mission and work with at-risk youth. I am especially grateful for the opportunity to work with and support the talented, creative and dedicated counselors who make a tremendous impact and difference in the lives of the youth and families they serve every day!"

"During my work career, I always tried to give back - to help improve the lives of others not as fortunate. That's the way my parents raised me. George Junior Republic gives me that same opportunity during my retirement years. I enjoy the chance to transport our youth, sometimes sharing with them lessons I learned along the way. Many times drivers are the first GJR staff new youth meet. We do our best to the represent George Junior Republic well."

"It makes me feel fulfilled to be able to teach the youth fundamental life skills that they wouldn't have otherwise learned prior to coming to GJR. It makes me very happy to see the effect that arts and crafts has on the mind of the youth. It creates a space of harmony and relaxation allowing them to explore their creativity and develop teamwork skills."
