Name: Priscilla Ross, JBM-HH victim advocate.
Job title/where do you work: JBM-HH SHARP
Victim Advocate.
What do you want people to know about your
duty assignment, job, program or service?
This is my first time at JBM-HH. My primary
responsibility as (your) JBM-HH victim advocate is
to support and help navigate during and after the
experience. Victim advocacy work requires heart,
passion and drive. The Army SHARP Program does
not just start a dialogue about sexual harassment/
assault, it takes appropriate actions and initiatives
to develop strategies for solutions to end the culture
of silence.
What’s the most rewarding part of your current position and why?
It is meaningful. For me, restoration of courage for victims of crimes is motivating;
it has the tangible effect of being the best possible version of oneself.
What’s your favorite…

Charitable donation by the EBRD Community Initiative
This year, the EBRD Community Initiative made a charitable contribution of EUR 50,000 to the Women Access to Entrepreneurship Development and Training Society (WAEDAT).
WAEDAT was founded in 2004 and launched under the patronage of Her Majesty Queen Rania in 2005. The organisation provides mentoring and training for women and young entrepreneurs in Jordan, to raise their awareness of local development opportunities and provide basic skills to start their own businesses.
The EBRD Community Initiative donation will enable WAEDAT to support local women entrepreneurs in strengthening and expanding their business activities.
There was an exhibition of the local goods and crafts, produced by the members of WAEDAT in the conference centre.
This is just the front of the building. It is on College Avenue which leads me to guess that it was once a college building. It later evolved into an elementary school. Now it is a community center, library, and dance studio among other uses
