Student Engagement Videos
Our Students Need YOU
“JA curriculum teaches students how money, careers, and business ownership work. With the help of volunteers like YOU, evidence shows that role models teaching JA programs can help create a simple shift in a young person’s mind. JA needs you! Your enthusiasm, life experience, and willingness to teach children about how you took chances and shot for the stars can create a positive attitude and help students dream bigger.” – JA of Dallas
The following series of videos, hosted by Dr. Teresa Leary Handy, offers a deeper dive to help volunteers be comfortable connecting with all students in a variety of situations. The videos were created with the help of our JA Area staff to assist volunteers with some of the frequent questions that arise about the JA volunteer experience.
