Economically empower hundreds of American youth

Junior Achievement volunteers bring JA curriculum to life in the classroom by sharing their personal stories of success and real world examples. The lessons the volunteers facilitate are preoject-based and experiential in nature; students participate in interactive team focused activities. The volunteers stress the relevance of school for the students and help them understand the importance of staying in school.

Thanks to the generous donors who have given to Junior Achievement USA in support of our efforts to reach students through 119 JA Areas across the U.S. For more information about Junior Achievement USA, our JA Programs and locations of  JA Offices, please check out our website at www.ja.org.

Thanks to the generous donors who have given to Junior Achievement USA in support of our efforts to empower young people to own their economic success!

How does JA USA do this? Our specially designed programs for kindergarten through high school students each provide the tools to teach young people financial literacy, entrepreneurship and work readiness skills. Junior Achievement strives to keep our programs up-to-date and relevant so in July of 2013 the following programs have been going through redevelopment and two programs are being combined into a more impactful and with outcomes tracked through pre/post testing of students in our programs.

JA Our Families / JA Our City / JA Economics for Success / JA It's My Future (a new program) / JA Job Shadow / JA Career by Design (will replace JA Success Skills and JA Careers with a Purpose)

Again, a special thank you to everyone who supports Junior Achievement USA and the 120 JA Areas across the United States. Please check out our website at www.ja.org  for more information regarding all of our JA Programs.
