Vermont Businesses: Jenna’s Promise is turning tragedy into hope in Johnson

A new video series from Vermont producer and host, Rocket, features a visits with the team at Jenna’s Promise, a non-profit founded in memory of Jenna Tatro, a victim of the ongoing opioid epidemic. After losing their daughter, Greg & Dawn Tatro devoted themselves fully to fulfilling the promise of Jenna’s potential: that of helping others navigate and overcome opioid addiction. Jenna’s Promise, located in Johnson, VT, provides therapy, housing, and – featured prominently in this story – work opportunities for the people they support. Through small businesses like Jenna’s Promise Roasting Co. and Jenna’s Promising Goods, this recovery-focused organization offers a supportive environment, skill training, and purpose, preserving Jenna’s legacy as an enduring beacon of hope, recovery, and resilience. Filmmaker Rocket profiled Jenna’s Promise in a series of eight video stories, called Small Vermont Businesses in Small Vermont Towns. New videos will be released weekly for eight weeks.
