JAG (Jobs for Alabama's Graduates)
Jobs for Alabama's Graduates identifies and provides educational support and success strategies for at-risk students. JAG is unique in that it serves students often overlooked. JAG eligible students can face up to 33 barriers to success including circumstances such as incarcerated parents, health problems, homelessness, having a dependent child, or having a disability. Once the students are identified, the JAG model is implemented by a JAG Specialist who works in school in the pursuit of a high school diploma, a quality entry-level job that leads to a career, and/or post secondary education.
In addition, JAG students are involved in the National Career Association. The purpose of the National Career Association (NCA) is to help members explore career pathways, to assess the opportunities and appropriateness of pursuing further education, to connect members with representatives of their chosen pathway, to develop their knowledge and skills, to secure employment in a job, and to demonstrate their ability to enter and advance with the employer.
