Calling Volunteers for Community and Career Support!

Can you help our JETAA members and greater community who are looking for work and/or changing careers during this crazy time? In times of crisis, we look to our community for support. With the pandemic and subsequent economic uncertainty, we need to come together to share experiences, insights, and tips. We are planning to host webinars to support our community — potential events include (in no particular order):
