Resource Coordinator

Meet Tre Spinks, the new Resource Coordinator at Jamieson Community Center! Tre’s journey to this role has been anything but ordinary, shaped by his passion for guiding others and a career path he never expected to follow.

 

Born and raised in Galesburg, IL, Tre's family moved to Texas during his high school years, spending two years in Austin. When he was 21, Tre and his family moved to Corpus Christi.  In 2018 his family moved back to Galesburg and he remained in Corpus Christi. He earned a degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminology from Texas A&M University, which led to a role in Child Protective Services, where he worked to ensure children in protective care found safe, permanent homes.

 

This experience opened his eyes to a career in human services—one he hadn’t planned but found deeply fulfilling. His mother, a Nursing Home Administrator, greatly influenced his path. “Not everyone has the same walk of life,” Tre shared. “It helped me realize that caring for people outweighs any thought of becoming rich.”

 

When Tre’s mom saw the Resource Coordinator position at JCC, she encouraged him to apply. Inspired by Nancy’s passion for the organization, he knew JCC was where he wanted to be.

 

In just one month, Tre has made his office in the Monmouth Resource Center a warm and welcoming space. The Resource Center also houses JCC’s food pantry and thrift store, making it a vital hub for the community. Tre continues to explore innovative ways to support individuals and families, guiding them grow and thrive by connecting them to valuable resources. He looks forward to meeting with people to connect them to resources, guiding them grow both individually and as part of the community.

 

Outside of work, Tre enjoys spending time with his 10-year-old Pit Bull/Rottweiler mix, “Pup.” He also values the work-life balance JCC provides, allowing him to make a difference while enjoying personal time.

 

Tre is eager to connect with community members. Stop by the Resource Center and say hello—he’s always ready to listen!
