The New Jersey Chamber of Commerce Foundation proudly serves as the state affiliate for the Jobs for America’s Graduates (JAG) program. Since 2012, JAG New Jersey participants have consistently achieved graduation rates of 93% to 100%, far exceeding their peers’ rates of 36% to 93%.

But the success doesn’t stop at graduation. JAG NJ participants are nearly four times more likely to secure full-time employment, and they emerge with renewed confidence, better school attendance, and a brighter outlook for the future. These outcomes not only transform the lives of young adults but also contribute to a stronger, more vibrant New Jersey workforce, fueling the state’s economy for years to come.
