NORTH REGION CONTINUES TO SHINE! Jaycees are involved in serving others. Through projects in our local chapters, Jaycees are bettering communities all across America. |

OPPORTUNITIES Put simply, we are the organization of choice for men and woman 21 - 39 years of age who want the best opportunities for leadership development, volunteerism and community service. The Junior Chamber organization is a constructive action organization of young persons who devote a portion of their time to community service in the public interest, developing young persons as leaders of their community. Offered are activities in three development areas: Individual Development Programs designed to increase the personal skills of the individual member. Community Development Programs and projects run by the chapter for the direct benefit of the community. Management Development Management techniques and officer's training to improve the individual's management skills. Friendship: In the Jaycees, you become part of the sharpest group of young people in town and no matter where you might be transferred or move, there is a nearby Jaycee chapter, a ready circle of friends. People who believe, as you do, in taking action to improve the world around them. |
RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW! in the North Region! Sure we all want to get ahead in life, but where would America be without volunteers? From a blood drive in a small town, to projects like giant stops on the PGA tour, Jaycees are volunteering. Members also participate in personal training seminars that would cost hundreds of dollars if you had to pay. What is the purpose? To offer people ages 21-39 opportunities through leadership training, community service and personal growth. How much time do I have to commit? Dedicate as much time and effort as you want. Of course, your return on investment will depend greatly on what you want out of your membership and how much time you put into it. How much does it cost to join? Each chapter sets its own dues rate. The amount is very reasonable considering the yield you'll receive. Your dues help run your local chapter, as well as the State, National and International organizations. Is there more than my chapter? When you become a member, you're automatically eligible to reap the benefits of belonging to your local chapter, the local region Jaycees, the Illinois Jaycees, the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce and Junior Chamber International. After I join, then what? It depends on you; there are many diversified activity areas. After you join, all that remains is for you to involve yourself in whatever areas stimulate your interests. If there is something that interests you that the local Jaycees don't do, then we want you to propose a project. Your local chapter, region, state and national Jaycees organizations are continuously improving their programming to better fulfill the needs of the community and the varied interests of all our members. I'M READY, HOW DO I JOIN? To find the closest chapter to your work or home and contact the chapter or Webmaster. |
