The Junior State of America (JSA) was created by and for these young people. Since its founding in 1934, more than 500,000 student members have become active, informed citizens through JSA.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read Our Mission Statement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What makes JSA so unique is that students organize every aspect of the organization, from the chapter level all the way to state and national administration. Our student leaders, elected by their fellow JSA members, plan and execute all of the conventions, conferences and political-awareness events held by JSA.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Exchange Of Ideas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>JSA allows for an exchange of ideas through stimulating student debates, thought talks, problem solving and a variety of simulations. By participating in these activities, each member gains a more intelligent and informed viewpoint. JSA also provides a wonderful chance to meet and make friends with scores of other bright, involved students who have similar interests. It\u2019s an experience that no young person would want to miss.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Organized At Local Chapter Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>JSA is a national organization organized at the local chapter level. These chapters collectively form regions which coordinate communication with chapters and run regional events annually. The regions form states which run three large overnight conventions a year, and the national level of general program operations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Help Spread The Word<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can help spread the word about JSA by using the resources and tools provided on this site.
