From the very start, his commitment to building a better life for himself has been steadfast and inspiring. After completing the Oaks Revitalization Association’s mentoring program and skilled training with LiUNA Local 183 Training Centre, Jerron went above and beyond to turn his aspirations into reality.


He didn’t wait for opportunities to find him—he actively sought them out. Day after day, Jerron showed up, demonstrating unmatched consistency and drive. His relentless effort took him from site to site, knocking on doors and presenting himself with unwavering confidence, until he finally heard that life-changing “yes.” That pivotal moment marked the beginning of an incredible new chapter in his journey.


Now, as a proud, unionized member of the Canadian Construction Workers Union, Jerron’s determination and hard work have paid off. He has carved out a path toward a secure and prosperous career, proving that resilience and grit can overcome any obstacle.



Jerron, your journey is a testament to the power of persistence and self-belief. Watching you grow and succeed has been nothing short of inspiring, and this milestone is just the beginning of what we know will be a remarkable future. Congratulations on your incredible achievement—we can’t wait to see all the amazing things you will accomplish!
