At the 2023 KidsFirst Awards Luncheon, JWB recognized the H. Browning Spence Education Award which was created to help area youth, who are preparing to exit or who have already exited the local foster care system, achieve their educational goals. The program was established in honor of JWB’s late Deputy Director Dr. H. Browning Spence to provide monetary awards to promising youth to help further their education.

We’re proud to share this year’s H. Browning Spence Education Award Winners: Gloria Richardson, April Dempsey-Adams, and Joanna Steenberge.

Watch their very moving speeches here.
