About Innov8tion

Our Story

Innov8tion was founded by Jonathan Ladouceur and Brittney Harvey—two individuals from different paths, united by a shared vision to create real, lasting impact for underserved professionals.

Jonathan, a dedicated professional, faced an unexpected challenge when he relocated for work. Despite his drive and determination, accessing basic resources in his new city proved nearly impossible. Many programs he turned to either deemed him ineligible or offered support so unresponsive and ineffective that he was left to navigate on his own. Frustrated by the lack of accessible, meaningful help, Jonathan knew something needed to change.

Brittney, on the other hand, had spent over a decade working in social services. Day after day, she witnessed how overwhelming and disjointed the system could be for individuals trying to better their lives. Her passion for advocacy and her deep understanding of community needs made her a powerful voice for change.

When Jonathan and Brittney crossed paths, their shared experiences and complementary strengths sparked a powerful collaboration. From that connection, Innov8tion was born—a nonprofit organization built to bridge the gaps in access, empower individuals in transition, and provide a clear path to success through our 8 Core Principles.

Together, they are redefining how support is delivered—making it responsive, inclusive, and truly effective.

The Power of 8

The number 8, turned on its side, becomes the infinity symbol, a perfect representation of continuous growth, boundless potential, and enduring integrity. Our 8 core values form an infinite loop of personal and collective excellence, each one reinforcing the others to create a powerful, balanced whole.

OUR CORE VALUES

Integrity: Like the unbreakable loop of the number 8, integrity binds us to truth and consistency. It's the unwavering core that ensures trust and alignment in all that we do.

Resilience: The shape of 8 is a cycle—resilience reflects that continuous movement through adversity, always coming back stronger.

Accountability: At the intersection of the 8 lies accountability—a grounding reminder that every action has consequences, and we must own our path.

Ambition: Just as 8 is a step beyond perfection (often symbolized by 7), ambition drives us beyond limits, toward infinite achievement.

Empathy: Like the fluid motion of the 8, empathy connects both sides—self and others—creating harmony, understanding, and unity.

Innovation: 8’s curves resemble flowing ideas—innovation allows us to reimagine the loop, never staying static, always evolving.

Leadership: True leadership guides others through the loop—uplifting, empowering, and creating momentum.

Growth Mindset: Just as 8 never ends, growth never stops. This mindset fuels lifelong learning, evolution, and transformation.
