Welcome to Episode 2 of These Are Our Kids: A Podcast for JDAIconnect. For this episode, we met with Lisa Garry in her hometown of Baltimore.  Lisa personifies passion for youth and both she and her work are recognized nationally.  She is the recipient of the Annie E. Casey Foundation's The Distinguished Leadership Award and the MacArthur Foundations Champion for Change Award. Currently,  Lisa is employed by the  Maryland Department of Juvenile Services. She was in that position during the protests in the aftermath of the death of Freddie Gray and the time that has come to be known as Baltimore Rising.We asked Lisa to share her experiences of Baltimore Rising as a JDAI site.  Did JDAI work during the turbulent time?  Listen to the episode to hear Lisa's response and her insight on "resetting" the initiative and the importance of our work being value-driven.  During the podcast, Lisa refers to her work with Models for Change and the Center for Children's Law and Policy.
