Mission Statement
Junior Achievement (JA) prepares students for what's next. JA graduates are better prepared to make smart choices and are less likely to become burdened by debt. In fact, JA alumni credit Junior Achievement with helping them develop the skills and confidence they can use throughout their lives to build professional and personal success.
About This Cause
Junior Achievement (JA) plays a critical role in inspiring and preparing young people to succeed in a global economy. Beginning with kindergarten, JA’s experiential programs continue through 12th grade and provide disruptive, eye-opening realizations about how our economy works, how to find and keep a job, and how to make good personal economic choices. JA programs are brought to life by volunteer role models who share their educational and professional stories, motivating students to obtain the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. JA programs are provided at no cost to schools and align with curriculum standards to help students achieve teachers’ learning objectives. The result is that students participating in JA programs are more optimistic about achieving future success. JA students show a statistically significant improvement in their attitudes toward school, and feel they are personally in control of their destiny. JA students embody an entrepreneurial spirit and are more confident in their ability to manage and control finances. JA programs equip students with the tools they need to find their own success in our competitive and challenging global workforce. While JA has a proven record of preparing students for what’s next, it also gives volunteers the opportunity to learn additional business concepts and develop professional skills. Volunteers report that delivering JA programs to students helps them to sharpen valuable business talents, including public speaking and motivational skills.
