The higher Apéry-like sum congruence for J~2k\tilde{J}_{2k}

Let pp be an odd prime, and let J~2k(n)\tilde{J}_{2k}(n) denote the normalized higher Apéry-like number of index 2k2k.

Higher Apéry-like sum conjecture. For any odd prime pp and any integer k2k\geq2,

n=0p1J~2k(n)1(modp2).\sum_{n=0}^{p-1}\tilde{J}_{2k}(n)\equiv-1\pmod{p^2}.

This is one of the paper's proposed congruence relations among normalized higher Apéry-like numbers; no resolution is given in the source.
