JAMP Office Hours

We’re excited to launch Quarterly JAMP Office Hours—a dedicated, drop-in space where you can connect directly with JAMP Administration and a rotating JAMP Council representative. These sessions are designed as an open forum: guests from JAMP Administration and the Council will not come with a set agenda, but instead with open eyes and ears, ready to listen, engage, and collaborate with you.

This is your opportunity to bring questions, share ideas, or provide feedback to help us strengthen your experience in the program. If you have a complex question, we encourage you to share details in advance so we can come prepared with a thoughtful response.

How it works

Format: Pre-scheduled, open drop-in
Who’s there: JAMP Administration + rotating JAMP Council member(s) (Council representatives for each session will be announced in advance)
Purpose: Quick Q&A, program guidance, and two-way feedback
Advance input (recommended): Submit your topic, context, and any relevant documents so we can research if needed
What these sessions are not: These are not substitute advising appointments, appeal hearings, or spaces for lengthy personal matters. For those needs, please schedule a private meeting via info@texasjamp.org or ngonzalez@texasjamp.org.
