IOWA JAG INC
Mission Statement
The mission of Iowa Jobs for America's Graduates (iJAG) is to assist students, who exhibit multiple barriers to educational success, in graduating from high school and successfully transitioning from high school to continued education and careers. It is the vision of iJAG to unlock student potential in order to support all students in graduating from high school and achieving success in their career and educational aspirations. The mission of iJAG is at the center of the organization's daily actions, activities and advocacy; driving the public/private partnership at the state level, while implementing the nationally recognized JAG model of dropout prevention at the local level. iJAG provides a comprehensive school-to-career program for high school students throughout Iowa and Illinois who are faced with challenges that hinder their opportunities to succeed. The program successfully removes individual barriers to success through creation of individual development plans for each student, and continues to provide support for one full year after graduation.
