Junior Achievement of Wisconsin Northwest and the Eau Claire Area Chamber of Commerce are teaming up for multiple JA in a Day events! JA in a Day is a high impact way to deliver JA's lessons for a particular grade level all on the same day. Some schools choose to have every grade receive JA programming on the same day. JA in a Day events are a unique opportunity as it offers volunteers a great option to get involved with Junior Achievement without juggling schedule conflicts or long-term commitments.
