9th & 10th graders from STL Youth Jobs came through JA Trades last week to pilot our program. In the Electrical station, we had so many that were able to get their light bulbs working after wiring up the board. Watch out workforce world...these students were polite, focused, and ready to try new things! www.JATrades4Teens.org #WorkforceDevelopment #careersintrades

Yesterday we had the opportunity to share JA's mission with MO Governor Mike Parson and First Lady Teresa Parson. They were able to get hands on with stations in our new upcoming program, JA Trades! We had a wonderful group in attendance and many were able to get a signed copy of his new biography. Supporting our non-profit makes a huge impact on students and we appreciate all that help spread the word about JA! www.jastl.org (While JA does not align with political parties we do support everyone's right to go vote!)

Executive Director @SLC3 (CEO) (STL AEC Community Change Maker, Best Practices Educator, Equity Supporter, Collaborator and Experienced Marketer)
This morning I attended an event at Junior Achievement of Greater St. Louis, Inc. Our Governor, Mike Parson was there and promoted his book, "No Turnin' Back." He has been very supportive of workforce initiatives focusing on trade jobs. The JA Trades initiative has hands on learning for middle and high school students so they are exposed to at least 20 different trades. Seeing it in person was amazing. We are so fortunate to have JA locally impacting over 140,000 students. I know they need more support to keep up their work in forever changing a student's life. Most students go on to have a successful career out of college or from a trade according to their Executive Director, Lori Jacob. If you have kids in STL I hope they get a chance to attend JA programs. Thank you for the invite Lori! #construction #education #stl #aecstl
