In response to the new requirement that high school students in Indiana must successfully finish a financial literacy course before graduation, Junior Achievement of Northern Indiana has developed a course that meets all state requirements for this legislative bill.

The JA Financial Literacy course for Indiana offers invaluable support to educators by providing comprehensive resources and interactive materials designed to teach financial literacy in an engaging and practical way. The course is designed to equip educators with ready-to-use curriculum materials, hands-on budgeting simulation, and real-world project scenarios, making it easier for them to deliver impactful lessons on financial concepts.

By leveraging Junior Achievement resources, educators can enhance their students' understanding of financial literacy, helping to build a strong foundation for financial responsibility and decision-making.
