Join Us in Celebrating Nicole Barnes’ 30 Years of Impact—Make a Difference with a $30 Donation

We’re thrilled to announce that Jericho Road’s Executive Director, Nicole Barnes, has been recognized by Biz New Orleans Magazine in their Real Estate Influencers series for her exceptional leadership and unwavering dedication to the Greater New Orleans community.

This year, Nicole celebrates 30 years of service, advancing affordable housing, small business growth, and workforce initiatives across Southeast Louisiana. Under her visionary guidance, our reach has expanded from our roots in Central City New Orleans to neighborhoods across the region, creating a lasting impact on countless lives.

From developing energy-efficient, affordable homes to leading workforce development and fostering community engagement, Nicole has been instrumental in transforming lives and building resilient communities. A standout project is the New Isle de Jean Charles Resettlement in Terrebonne Parish, where we are constructing 27 Fortified Gold-standard homes for families displaced by coastal erosion. Designed to withstand hurricanes and natural disasters, these homes provide long-term security and peace of mind.

This work is about more than housing—it’s about restoring hope, preserving culture, and protecting our communities’ future.

We also congratulate the other honorees recognized for their contributions to the region. Together, we are shaping a brighter, more resilient future for Southeast Louisiana.

To honor Nicole’s 30 years of service, we invite you to celebrate this milestone with us. Consider making a donation of $30—one dollar for each year of her dedicated leadership—to support our ongoing mission in the Greater New Orleans area. Your gift will help us continue building thriving neighborhoods and transforming lives across Southeast Louisiana.
