Young Jain Professionals
YIA - Young Jains of America Jai Jinendral Young Jains of America ("YJA") welcomes you to Youth Activities at the 2015 JAINA Convention. This is the second time YJA has had the opportunity to host Youth Activities, and we couldn't be more excited for this year's convention. Our committee members have worked hard to provide the best experience for Jain youth between the ages of 14-20. We would like to thank JAINA for their unwavering support and guidance.
YOUNG JAIN PROFESSIONALS
Young Jain Professionals (YJP) is an organization focused primarily on professional development and networking events, spiritual development programming, and community service initiatives for young Jain professionals ages 24 - 42. Our membership has increased dramatically, we have over 1,400 email subscribers, nearly 1,000 Facebook likes and over 300 members on YJP's Linkedin group
YJA's mission is to be recognized nationally and internationally as an umbrella Jain youth organization for establishing a network for and among youth to share Jain heritage and religion. To accomplish this, we bring Jain youth together for volunteer events, national dinners, and regional retreats. Additionally, YJA conventions are held biennially, gathering youth, speakers, adult volunteers, and Jain dignitaries together to raise awareness about Jain ideals and principles in North America and the world. Our 2016 YJA Convention location will be revealed soon, so please make sure you are signed-up for our e-mail marketing list. Visit www.yja.org for more information.
YJP continues to advance its goals including: solidiflying infrastructure in terms of its Executive Board, finance, public relations, and event management, rebranding YJP's technology and communications: increasing national awareness of YJP with 50+ events, and collaborating with local Jain Centers including Mahavir Jayanti celebrations, community service, and youth participation in religious events. We hope that you join us at our next event in your area!
