Impact Jackson 601 believes in the power of neighborhoods. 

​

Jayne Avenue Neighborhood Association (JANA), located just North of our headquarters, empowers neighbors through connection, care, and cooperation with local and state officials, law enforcement, and community partnerships.

​

Impact Jackson 601 and Jayne Avenue Neighborhood Association are strong partners in the West Jackson community. Together, we proudly supported the 7th Annual Mother's Day Brunch, hosted by Board Chair Representative Zakiya Summers, recognizing 35 individuals, organizations, and agencies combined as "Community Builders."

​

We look forward to continued collaboration and support of this Association in our collective efforts to creating lasting change.
