Jobs for Georgia’s Graduates (JGG) is a school-to-work transition program designed to provide high school students with preemployment training, work skills, motivational activities, and job development services. The program is a partnership among local schools, businesses, communities, and the Georgia Department of Labor. JGG is affiliated with the Jobs for America’s Graduates (JAG), the nation’s largest school-to-work system, serving 70,000 youth in 26 states. JAG’s mission is to keep young people in school through graduation and provide work-based learning experiences that will lead to career advancement opportunities, or to enroll in a postsecondary institution that leads to a rewarding career. There are 38 schools in Georgia with a JGG program; some have the 5-year model where students begin in the 9th grade and others have the senior model for students in the 12th grade only. More information on the JAG model can be found at the link below.
