Stenell Myers — CEO & Founder
Stenell Myers is a mission-driven entrepreneur, business owner, investor, and community advocate with over a decade of experience in youth development and social services.
She is the Chief Executive Officer of multiple community-based businesses, including:
JOY (Just Our Youth) Making a Difference — a before- and after-school and summer program, with a child care center for ages 10–13 at the Millville Financial & Entrepreneurial Café Campus.
A Second Touch — a support coordination agency that currently serves 145 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities across New Jersey, with plans to expand to 300.
Money Therapy Institute (since 2018) — helping adults navigate financial literacy, build confidence with money, and break cycles of financial hardship.
Since 2015, Stenell has been changing students' lives across New Jersey — beginning in Paulsboro High School and Loudenslager Elementary with STEM and career exploration programs. Today, JOY has expanded to a new campus in Millville, NJ, serving families and preparing the next generation of leaders.
"Help families break the generational cycle of poverty, ensuring that children achieve academic success."
With every venture, Stenell's commitment remains the same: to empower families, strengthen communities, and create systems that lead to independence, dignity, and opportunity.
