JAG-K does more than prepare students to become good employees. It prepares them to become community leaders. One way JAG-K accomplishes this goal is by introducing students to the Kansas governmental process on JAG-K Day at the Capitol, a day-long visit to the Kansas statehouse that includes meetings with legislators.

JAG-K is linking up with the state's correctional facility for juveniles to help prepare justice-involved youth for bright futures. A new JAG-K program located within the Kansas Juvenile Corrections Complex (KJCC) is bringing the evidence-based curriculum and concepts to a unique population.

A job shadow experience sponsored by JAG-K led former McPherson High School student Tiannah McGill to a job that is now paying dividends in public safety for the community.

JAG-K will receive a $15,000 grant from the Office of the State Bank Commissioner (OSBC) to assist in its mission to help students prepare for successful futures. The OSBC recently released a statement announcing $160,286 in grant awards to eight Kansas organizations to provide financial literacy education throughout the state.

Participants in the JAG-K program are the beneficiaries of membership in the state Career Association, which operates as part of the JAG National Career Association (NCA).
