Written By Marieke Spence

At the 2014 Turner MIINT finals, the team from Kellogg School of Management earned top honors, receiving both the Best Impact and Best Investment awards.

The winning team—Cindy Ye, Jennifer Wittig, and Zoila Jenning—presented Jail Education Solutions (JES), an early-stage social enterprise delivering educational content to incarcerated individuals via tablet technology. JES aims to reduce recidivism and improve post-release employment outcomes.

Their award secured a $50,000 angel investment to support JES in launching pilot programs across seven correctional facilities.
