What if the biggest barrier to helping young people wasn’t funding — but paperwork? In this episode, we sit down with Alysia Lee, CEO and President of the Baltimore Children & Youth Fund (BCYF), to uncover how her team transformed a slow, manual grantmaking process into a fast, transparent, and automated system using Jotform Enterprise.

Alysia shares how BCYF supports over 100 grassroots youth organizations each year and why outdated workflows were holding them back. She breaks down how switching to Jotform Enterprise helped them automate approvals, simplify reporting, collaborate across departments, and move millions in grant dollars faster — ensuring young people get access to high-quality programs without unnecessary delays.

You’ll learn:

- How BCYF automated grant reviews, reimbursements, and compliance workflows

- Why “one-click reporting” has been a game changer for public transparency

- How flexible, youth-friendly forms made it easier for young people to apply for leadership roles

- How staff across departments used Jotform to build better, more efficient processes

- The real impact: more time for grantees to serve youth, less time stuck in bureaucracy

If you’re a nonprofit leader, grantmaker, public sector innovator, or operations professional, this episode offers a real-world look at how technology can streamline complex workflows and improve community outcomes.
