Why JAG?
Everyday in Arizona hundreds of young people are dropping out of school. Lacking support at home, they quickly turn to drugs and gangs to give them a sense of community and belonging. There are over 93,000 18-24 year olds each year in Arizona who are not attending school, not working and have no degree beyond high school. Youth are dropping out because:
Classes aren’t relevant to their future;
Issues outside of school that need to be resolved;
No personal connection to school or any adult at school.
JAG provides at-risk youth with a reason come to school, a mentor and supporter, a boost of confidence, an opportunity to give back to their communities, and a glimpse into their own bright futures.
JAG is currently serving nearly 1500 students across Arizona. With diverse support from government, United Way, Foundations and Corporations, JAG’s vision is to grow statewide allowing more students the opportunity to participate in a JAG program
