Breann Jones, Home Supervisor

Breann graduated from Southern Utah University in 2016 with her bachelor's degree in psychology. Shortly after that, in 2017, she got her start working in residential treatment centers, and also became a foster parent. Breann loves being able to help the boys in her care excel in so many different areas of their life, which is why she continued working in this field. In 2020 she married her husband Weston and became a blended family of 8. In August 2021 she found her way to YHA where she started as a youth mentor. Shortly after, she was able to take on the role of the Resource Coordinator which helped her gain a lot of invaluable experience for the role she has today.
