History | Newsroom | Employers | Multimedia | Program Contacts | JAG Survey
When employers provide internships, job shadowing, and mentoring, they empower students to gain important work experience and build connections to the local workforce.
On average, JAG students experience more barriers to success than most. In order to combat this hurdle, JAG Specialists play a key role in their students’ success, teaching an array of foundational building blocks like problem solving and teamwork. Through counseling and training of basic skills, participants are prepared for successfully getting and keeping a job. JAG Specialists support their students for one year after high school and connect students to job openings and continued career guidance.
