What is JJM?
Juvenile Justice Ministry (JJM) engages teens in relational outreach as they are met in a variety of youth-serving institutions (i.e. detention centers, probation, correctional facilities, etc.) Our strategy is to introduce young people to the life-changing message of Jesus Christ and help them develop a way of living taught by Him. We build valued relationships in the facility that are sustained through ongoing involvement as they re-enter their communities.
