About Junior Achievement of Alaska

Junior Achievement of Alaska's mission is to educate and inspire young people to succeed in a global economy.  Program materials are made available at no cost to teachers and schools, and are presented by volunteers from the business community.  Junior Achievement program materials are hands-on, activity based, and emphasize the pillars of Junior Achievement:  Financial Literacy, Workforce Readiness, and Entpreneurship.

Established in 1973, JA Alaska serves more than 12,800 K-12 students in 53 Alaskan communities on an annual basis.  An investment of $49 is all it takes to provide Junior Achievement to a student in Alaska.
