I wasn’t at this event, but I couldn’t be more proud to see Jason Doty one of our incredible graduates from Persevere featured in this article. His story highlights the life-changing impact of programs that equip justice-involved individuals with in-demand technology skills and a pathway to a second chance. At Persevere, we believe in the power of education to transform lives and create opportunities where there were once barriers. Jason’s journey is a testament to what’s possible when determination meets opportunity, and it’s inspiring to see how he’s paving the way for others to follow. Thank you to everyone involved in bringing programs like this to life and to Jason for being a shining example of what can be achieved through perseverance and hard work.
