Celebrating & Honoring Local Leadership and Lasting Impact
All It Takes is proud to honor our long-standing partnership with Sheriff Jim Fryhoff which began in 2012 when then Thousand Oaks Police Department Commander Randy Pentis and Assistant Commander Jim Fryhoff championed a prevention program to reduce teenage crime through early intervention. With Lori Woodley’s vision for an experiential approach, this collaboration grew into a lasting initiative that continues to serve Conejo Valley students. All It Takes and the Sheriff’s office, along with other partners, including SEL4CA and VCOE, are currently building a county-wide initiative that will offer a program like no other across Ventura County schools.
Celebrating Our Honorees
