2026 JA Partners in Achievement Breakfast

About This Event

On May 14th, join us in Hartford as we showcase the incredible students, volunteers, and educators who have benefited from their JA experiences. There will also be a great opportunity to network with local businesses. This annual event celebrates JA's impact in the community, features students who have experienced JA in their classrooms, and highlights the critical need for financial literacy and workforce readiness programs in our schools.

During the breakfast program, which begins at 8:45 a.m, you will hear firsthand from students and educators, from local schools who have all experienced the impact of JA programs. We promise you will be inspired! This event is considered one of Connecticut's best opportunities to network with the top business leaders from across the state.

From 8:00 - 8:45 a.m, while you network with old and new friends, you will also have a chance to mingle with JA students. During this time, you will be treated to a delicious full breakfast. Don't miss this incredible opportunity to network and support the more than 30,000 young people JA will serve this school year. Please note that this is a fundraising event and guests will be asked to make a contribution during the program.
