The jam (joyce's amazing miracle) team was originally created as a support team for dr. Joyce a. Miller during her battle with glioblastoma, a deadly form of brain cancer. As part of her post-surgical recovery, dr. Miller transformed her jam team into a foundation under her non-profit corporation. The jam team will be a driving force in realizing dr. Miller's vision that all parents should be able to go to work every day knowing that their children are cared for and receiving the best early childhood education and child care possible. The jam team will accomplish this vision through a number of initiatives, ranging from assisting needy families with scholarships to the establishment of miracle spaces and miracle micro-centers.
