Reliable Members of the Workforce

"As an employer, we regularly see younger job applicants lacking the soft and hard-skills they need to be reliable members of the workforce. FSC’s current JAG programs have seen great success in preparing students for life and work after graduation so they can be productive members of the community and the workplace - a win-win benefit for both area employers and the youth themselves."

Craig Daniel
Director of Hiring and Talent Development at Chick-fil-A East Madison

Strong, Independent Individuals

"To everyone who made JAG possible and helps continue its life on to help other generations. Thank you! You are creating strong, and independent individuals who will always chase those small voices that YOU help nurture to do very big, and amazing things! Thank you for the experience of a lifetime"

Discover the Value of the Youth

"I have seen first-hand the many benefits that the JAG program offers young men and women in the Beloit community. JAG is successful because it helps young people discover their talents, values, and skills. Forward Service Corporation’s JAG program works for Wisconsin and works for our community."

Investing in the Youth

"As a state senator I championed public funding for expanding the JAG program in Wisconsin because it is a worthwhile investment in our young people and the future of the state. JAG helps high school students stay in school until graduation and lay the foundation for a successful transition into adulthood. Whether they go on to college, into the workforce – or both – JAG helps these students map out their future and get the skills to thrive."
