Jose Rosado has worked diligently for over twenty years, serving as an educator, youth and community advocate, consultant to law-enforcement and social services agencies, political organizer and founder of a non-profit organization.

A product of the welfare system and “public housing,” Jose considers himself very fortunate to have been able to overcome many of the troubling factors that contribute to the detriment of our troubled teens. Jose started his career as a high school guidance counselor directing a program for “troubled” students. Jose now serves as a middle school assistant principal and remains very active in his community.
