The JETAA Chicago Leadership is committed to creating an inclusive and supportive environment for everyone in our community. To learn more review our Community Conduct & Agreements.

The holiday season is here! JETAA Chicago invites our JET alumni community to join our next Open Board Meeting on Monday, December 6th, 6:30-7:30 pm CST, to discuss the upcoming events, community collaborations, and more!



And as is tradition, our December meeting will end early so that at 7:30 pm sharp, we can enjoy our annual (still virtual) BOWLnenkai Game Night! So grab a drink and get ready for a night of casual conversation, games and trivia, as we try and end 2021 on a high note!


Alumni can sign up for the meeting, just the BOWLnenkai, or both!


BOWLnenkai Theme: Factions - Rep your favorite team/group/nation from comics, movies, sports and more!


Sign up here!


*This event is for JET alumni only.
