Mission Statement
Jobs for Nevada’s Graduates Inc. (aka, JAG Nevada) strives to graduate every student entrusted in our care from high school and set them on a path to higher education, a career or both.
Description
JAG Nevada is the most highly effective dropout intervention model in the US where students graduate work-ready. We don’t just focus on getting more kids to graduate. We prepare them for life after high school by teaching them the practical skills necessary to be successful in the workplace, and helping them enroll in post-secondary education or the military. Earning a diploma is just the beginning for JAG students.
In the long-term, JAG Nevada graduates will have lower rates of unemployment, incarceration, and welfare program enrollment, which benefits the economies of our state and local communities and makes our communities more prosperous and vibrant.
