Junior Achievement of Central Carolinas

Charlotte, NC

Equipping Students with Life Skills

Competing in today’s global economy requires education, preparation and innovation. In partnership with schools, local businesses and volunteers across our state, Junior Achievement provides K-12 students with experiential programs both in and out of the classroom. Their programs focus on financial literacy, entrepreneurship and workforce readiness and are designed to enhance their understanding of the relevance of education in the real world.

With a vision to impact 600,000 students by the year 2030 - Junior Achievement of Central Carolina (JACC) hired KSQ Design to develop a new headquarters and Capstone facility. The facility contains JA BizTown, JA Finance Park, Junior Achievement of Central Carolinas administrative offices, and expanded programs and services. Opened in the Fall of 2018, JACC has significantly increased its impact on young people by helping them develop critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills - better equipping our youth for the future.
