Volunteering at JA Discovery Centers
What are JA Discovery Centers?
Following a series of in-class lessons, education comes to life with a culminating visit to a JA Discovery Center. These high-impact education centers house JA BizTown and JA Finance Park, providing middle school students with an immersive learning experience that gives them a glimpse of what their futures can entail.
