about us

We are the passionate people behind a movement that seeks to educate and inspire young people to succeed in a global economy. Through age-appropriate curricula, JA programs begin at the elementary school level, teaching children how they can impact the world around them as individuals, workers and consumers. JA programs continue through the middle grades and high school, focusing on the key content areas of entrepreneurship, work readiness, and financial literacy.

We do all this with the help of our volunteers. Volunteers who so care about our youth they take time out of their day to make a difference.

Junior Achievement is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization sponsored by corporate and individual contributors.
