Junity is excited to announce its partnership with The Momentum Foundation- a Hartford, CT based nonprofit organization - to launch its pilot program, The BoardRoom Initiative! Learn more about The Momentum Foundation here: https://lnkd.in/e64dbj-v

The BoardRoom Initiative assembles a group of career-field experts to serve as a personalized advisory board to each student based on the student’s self-identified interest in Business Entrepreneurship and STEM career clusters. The BRI will use the Junity App as a space for youth, like Francesca, to become the “CEO” of their life and career path by pairing them with mentor advisors and exposing them to the various skills, training, and professional opportunities through job shadowing and internships.
