Parent, Caregiver & Coaches Course
The J.O. Foundation would like to thank the professional speakers who came and spoke of the different topics during these educational experiences; we received incredible feedback from parents, caregivers, and coaches.
Through this, we were able to create a safe space where we could learn and grow together. While our parents, caregivers, and coaches were a part of these educational experiences, the kids got free gym time to perfect their craft.
Our kids go through so much, not just on the court or in sports but in life and educational experiences 2-5 were meaningful conversations our founder, Jayden Oliver, wanted to not only shed light on but have open conversations and create a safe space for everyone. -

Ed. Experience 8/8
The J.O. Foundation’s 8th Educational Experience the 2023 year, Honoring and Celebrating Native American Heritage Month! We had a great night planned for our youth and community. We started the night off showcasing exceptional Native Artwork and vibes by D.J. @nymasis405.
The “O Ho Mah Singers-Kiowa” blessed our space on the drums, and Fancy Shawl Dancer- Brittany Yarholar followed after the O Ho Mah Singers. To end the night, our keynote speaker Quese IMC Performing Artist, and Cultural Preservationist shared some wisdom about Native American History and Culture. Then, we finished the night with a live performance.
We served delicious food, and some giveaways took place; we had two winners that night: Keenest Earings, Fly’est Mocs, and our raffle winner.
We can’t wait to bring you our 2024 N.A.H.M experience.
