Sponsoring the 2014 YJA Convention

Our organization's mission is to be recognized as a national and international umbrella Jain youth organization for establishing a network to share Jain heritage, religion, and philosophy through young people aged 14-29 from across North America. Our goals are to raise awareness of Jain values and principles, to create a forum for sharing Jain Dharma and to instill a sense of pride among Jain youth about their heritage.

We also aim to address the challenges, difficulties, and concerns facing a new generation of young Jains and to prepare the Jain youth to become leaders, both within and outside of the Jain community while developing friendships and building a network among like minded young Jains. This in turn will lead to strengthening Jain youth groups throughout our local communitities. Young Jains of America (YJA) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, parented by the Federation of Jain Associations in North America (JAINA).
