The two JA offices combined, reached over 10,400 students in six counties in 2008-2009. The collaboration will allow both offices to leverage relationships with donors and educators, and to increase their impact in the Michiana area. Nick Dalton, President of Junior Achievement of Michiana said, "This merger is a wise business decision for JA of Elkhart County and JA of Michiana, as it will allow both offices to join their resources, and increase their capacity. It will ultimately benefit the young people in our community by giving more students access to JA's work readiness, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy programs." "All good businesses are evaluating their organizations to become more effective in the future, and this move shows that we are no different," Dalton added.
