Jefferson Street United Merchants Partnership, Inc. (JUMP)

JUMP Nashville JUMP is committed to developing and promoting cooperative economic development, revitalization, education and public safety programs in in North Nashville. Advocating for Community, Economic & Workforce Development. "Advocating for Community, Economic, and Workforce Development" is our mission. JUMP began as a merchants organization for businesses on Jefferson Street, but soon realized that those businesses could not be revitalized if the surrounding community was unemployed and/or underemployed. Hence, the birth of Workforce Development, where we have been successful in getting over 500 applicants employed, and over 1500 have received hard and soft skills training,as well job application assistance. Our ultimate goal is the revitalization of Jefferson Street, returning it to its former glory, revitalizing the surrounding communities, and contributing to the economic strength of this wonderful city of Nashville by employing as many applicants from "pockets of poverty".
