Junior Achievement Finance Park is where personal finance becomes personal.

Students begin with teacher-led lessons that introduce the financial decisions they will one day make as adults. Along the way, they explore:

• Careers, income, education pathways, and future goals
• Saving, investing, risk management, and charitable giving
• Debit, credit, credit history, and responsible borrowing
• Housing, transportation, insurance, taxes, and everyday expenses
• Budgeting, decision-making, and how choices impact future opportunities

Then students put their learning into action inside Lincoln Finance Park, an interactive simulation where they receive a life scenario and make real-world decisions about how to manage their income, expenses, savings, and lifestyle. With guidance from adult volunteers, students research options, build a budget, make purchases, and experience how education, career, credit, and financial choices shape their future.

For educators, JA Finance Park connects classroom learning to practical financial decision-making. For volunteers, it creates a meaningful opportunity to coach students as they navigate real-life choices. For sponsors, it connects your business and industry to an experience that helps young people understand the financial realities of adulthood.

JA Finance Park helps students see that their future is shaped by the choices they make today — and gives them the confidence to plan for the life they want to build.

All JA programs are designed to align with Indiana State Standards, ensuring comprehensive educational experiences. View the JA Finance Park Learning Experience Briefs: Entry or Advanced.
