Partnerships, Political Momentum, and Duke Receives His Pardon

The IGC team has had some incredible momentum over the last few weeks. From Washington D.C. to Boston, to Nevada and Florida, our work is picking up speed and we’re thrilled to share what’s unfolding.

Sam, Duke, and Adam with SNRHA
Yesterday marked the official start of our collaboration with the Southern Nevada Regional Housing Authority (SNRHA) on developing our AI software program implementation. We were joined by Calvin Gee and Jared Green (Founders of EngagWork.com), who helped facilitate a productive discussion.
SNRHA’s team provided detailed feedback on their current processes, key pain points, and the ways our tool can enhance their operations. Their enthusiasm for what’s ahead was unmistakable and the momentum is strong.
We’re moving forward with a phased rollout:
Over the next 2–3 weeks, we’ll build a proof of concept (POC) version of the tool.
Early August, the POC will launch, supported by events organized by the SNRHA team to introduce the program.
We’ll run the program for 60 days, gathering results and insights.
Mid-October, we plan to showcase the data and solution at the Nevada Housing Coalition event.
This is an ambitious timeline, and every partner is moving with urgency to deliver. Next steps include finalizing the POC development and drafting the initial memorandum of understanding (MOU) to formalize this pilot.

Indiana Governor Braun with IGC
Last week, we met with Indiana Governor Braun, who expressed strong enthusiasm and support for our work. He’s offered to connect us with three Indiana cities to begin pilot initiatives and will be providing a letter of support to help advance conversations both locally and in Washington, D.C.
Governor Braun will be introducing us to the mayors of these cities and recommending collaboration with our team—a powerful token of support as we continue to scale our impact.

Duke’s Pardon Celebration
On May 28th, the current administration formally granted a pardon to Duke Tanner, marking a powerful milestone in a long effort. This outcome was the result of persistent advocacy, including letters written by Sam, Jesse, and Adam directly to the President in support of Duke’s pardon.
The pardon was celebrated as both a personal victory and a broader symbol of justice. Duke has since taken on a new role as a spokesperson for the Black Caucus for Trump, continuing his journey of advocacy and leadership.
The momentum we’re building across states and sectors is just the beginning. With pilot programs gearing up, political allies stepping forward, and on-the-ground rollouts taking shape, the coming weeks promise even more action.
