JAWA Lunch With Leaders brings together Washington state leaders and K-12 students in a no-cost, virtual format to inspire students and prepare them for a stronger tomorrow! Leaders share their stories and discuss the skills and qualities necessary to succeed in their field and give advice on how to plan for a rewarding future.
The format for each session is a 15-minute presentation from the speaker, and 15 minutes for Q&A. Starting with our January 27 speaker, we will have a live American Sign Language interpreter. All recorded sessions are closed captioned.
