This week, we were honored to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of The Juvenile Assessment Center - The JAC! Thank you to the staff, board, and community partners for your leadership and commitment to youth and families.

The JAC not only serves as a model for assessment centers across the country, but it was THIS JAC that sparked the vision for the National Assessment Center Association (NAC). Because of their innovation and investment, the NAC has supported a nationwide movement, connecting more youth and families to supports and keeping them out of systems that can be both harmful and costly.

We’re proud to celebrate their impact and legacy and we can’t wait to see what the next 25 years bring!
