IRSJA | 2025 Year in Review ✨ IRSJA was established in 2024 by Dr. Jamila T. Davis @jamilatdavis and Angelo Pinto @angelopintoesq after recognizing a critical gap: the need to connect people doing the work on the ground with higher education, formal training, and real capacity-building support. 🎓🤝 In a short period of time, our organization has been able to do meaningful, measurable work alongside communities across the country. 📊 2025 Impact Highlights: • 774 leaders convened • 330+ organizations engaged • 23 states represented • $1.2M+ invested in community-led infrastructure • $260,000 reinvested directly into community organizations • 75+ community practitioners certified through college-aligned cohorts • Official City Recognition Award from Atlantic City for Pull Up For Peace 🏆 • 7.28M media impressions and 499M total audience reach amplifying community-led solutions 📺📰 Through Pull Up For Peace @pullup4peace , our Community Practitioner Certification Program, and partnerships with institutions including Kean University, Miles College, and Medgar Evers College, we are helping build a trained, credentialed frontline workforce grounded in lived experience and practice-based learning. We are deeply grateful to the cities and partners who trusted us to do this work— Special thank you to Newark, New Jersey; New York City; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Birmingham, Alabama—for the opportunity, the platform, and the commitment to community-led solutions. 🤍 ✨ This is what community-led change looks like. ✨ This is what infrastructure for the field looks like.
