Junior Achievement of Washington Junior Achievement is dedicated to helping young people reach economic success.

JA programs teach vital skills in financial literacy, work and career readiness, and entrepreneurship through age-appropriate curriculum for K-12 students. Junior Achievement of Washington provides hands-on, age appropriate educational economic programming to students in grades K - 12. JA programs are taught by a volunteer by the local business community and are provided at no cost to the schools. JA's programs are designed to help provide critical economic education at every grade level and work in a sequential nature to help ensure comprehension and competency

JA World provides JA BizTown for our Elementary capstone program and JA Finance Park for the middle grades capstone program. High school students also participate in JA Finance Park for a "Budget Challenge", a one-day event.

This Hispanic Heritage Month, we’re celebrating the strength, culture, history and contributions of Hispanic communities across Washington—and reflecting on why representation matters.

Junior Achievement of Washington is a statewide organization serving young people and communities with different backgrounds, cultures, experiences and aspirations. Our organization should reflect the communities we serve. That means having staff and board members who bring diverse lived experiences, perspectives and connections to the work we do.

Representation matters because young people deserve to see themselves reflected in the people leading, teaching, volunteering and investing in their future. It also makes JA stronger—helping us listen better, build trust and ensure our programs and partnerships are relevant to the communities we serve.

This month, we proudly honor the Hispanic members of JA's community, including board members Esther Richmond, Gilbert Alvarez, and Julissa McWashington; President & CEO Natalie Vega O'Neil; and members of our Experiential Learning team Daniel Hernandes and Shelly Torres. Alongside our educators, volunteers, partners, families, and students, their contributions help create brighter futures for young people across Washington.
