- 36% UAA students experience food insecurity during the school year
- 37% UAA students don’t know if they can pay rent next month

I AM UAA: J.R. Dull
J.R. Dull has his dream job-working with kids in the Bristol Bay Region and helping them stay out of trouble, and if they don't, helping them get the services they need to get back on track. J.R. is the supervising juvenile probation officer in Dillingham, Alaska, and is responsible for all the juvenile cases in the 32 villages in the Bristol Bay Region, an area of about 40,000 square miles.
