Reimagining Education to Expand Opportunity.

Our Core Initiatives

At JA, we are committed to giving students the skill set and mindset to build thriving communities. This is especially vital in our local Iowa communities as we watch employers struggle to meet workforce demands while young people struggle with financial burdens amidst an ever-evolving economic and technical environment.

We know that solving issues plaguing our next generation are too much for a single organization to bear. That is why we are dedicated to statewide change, through government advocacy and corporate partnerships, to impact students across Iowa.

Impact

Junior Achievement designs learning experiences with the end in mind: real outcomes for students. Our experiences don't just expose young people to ideas about the future — they help students clearly connect what they are learning today to where they want to go tomorrow in a measurable way.
