Since 1991, Jobs for Mississippi Graduates, a private, non-profit organization, has provided at-risk, public-school students with the transitional skills they need to be successful after school in their families, in their communities and in their workplaces.

JMG’s Job Specialists take advantage of every opportunity to engage students in classroom instruction, employability skills training and mentoring exercises – including one year of follow-up after graduation, if necessary – to help them find careers they want, and become successful in them.

JMG’s goal is to guide qualified students through their high-school years successfully, integrate them into their communities and find – and keep – viable employment after graduation. Together with parents, faculty, counselors, social services and the business community – JMG makes a positive difference in dozens of young lives each year.
