JARC announced the 
appointment of Adam Jahnke 
as the new president and 
chairman of the board of 
directors, who will serve 
a two-year term. Jahnke 
takes on the position 
most recently held by 
Joshua Tobias, who 
will now hold the title 
of past president and 
will continue to serve 
on JARC’s Board of 
Directors. 
 Jahnke has been a member of 
JARC’s Board of Directors for 
nine years, including a one-year 
term as president-elect in 2023. 
“While serving nearly a 

decade on JARC’s Board 
of Directors, the majority 
of my time has been spent 
fundraising, encouraging young 
adult involvement, 
promoting events 
and monitoring 
organizational 
finances,
” Jahnke said. 
“In this new role, my 
goal is to develop 
innovative ways to 
provide value and 
share new perspectives 
to help JARC continue forward 
with their important mission 
as I spend more time both with 
the people we serve, as well as 
our incredible staff.
”
