JA Integrity Program

[insert policy here?]

Supporting a culture of accountability across OneJA

JA Integrity is JA’s centralized mechanism for reporting concerns, complaints, or suspected wrongdoing. It enables JA stakeholders to raise concerns safely and without fear of retaliation.

This initiative reflects our global commitment to transparency, accountability, and trust across the global network. Strong organizations create safe, accessible ways for people to raise concerns, ask questions, and report suspected wrongdoing. By encouraging responsible reporting and protecting individuals from retaliation, JA Integrity helps strengthen our culture, safeguard our stakeholders, and ensure that JA continues to operate with the highest ethical standards.

Reporting a Concern

You do not need proof or hard evidence to submit a concern. A reasonable belief that misconduct, unethical behavior, policy violations, fraud, harassment, discrimination, financial impropriety, or other wrongdoing may have occurred is enough to make a report. All reports submitted through JA Integrity are reviewed carefully and handled as confidentially as possible.

Speaking up protects individuals, strengthens organizations, and helps JA uphold our values worldwide. You have four ways to report:

  • Reach out locally: Speak with a CEO, Executive Director, or member of the Senior Leadership Team at your JA member location, your regional operating center (ROC), or JA Worldwide.

  • Send a secure message: Email integrity@jaworldwide.org

  • Use our whistleblower tool on the FaceUp platform: Use the JA whistleblowing platform (links are below). When submitting a report, first select either:

    • Your geographic ROC: JA Africa, JA Americas, JA Asia Pacific, JA Europe, INJAZ Al-Arab/JA MENA, or Junior Achievement USA

    • “JA Worldwide” for global concerns

  • JA Africa is the regional operating Center for JA Worldwide in sub-SaharaC Africa. Simi Nwogugu serves as CEO, and Janet Thiongo, Africa Marketing Technology Director, Oracle, chairs the JA Africa board. Established in 2011, JA Africa teaches tangible, marketable, and sustainable skills to the rapidly increasing cohort of out-of-school, idle, unemployed, and underemployed youth in Africa. Over the next decade, JA Africa aims to provide one million African youth with information and resources, and to build the self-confidence and self-reliance necessary for Africa’s youth and the subcontinent to succeed.
