Byron Story Youth Restoration Career Center

Executive Director Juanita Story-Jones created the Byron Story Foundation to honor her son, who was a victim of handgun violence in 2002. This alternative education center helps troubled teenagers by combining teaching with intensive counseling. Byron Story Foundation has acquired two vacant lots in Francisville for a new, expanded facility. The volunteer team developed a program of space needs, conceptual design, and opinion of probable costs for the new facility.
