Professional Staff Hall of Fame Award

The JA Professional Staff Hall of Fame honors and recognizes former JA staff members whose long-term commitment and exceptional achievements significantly impacted the organization, creating a foundation for the current JA structure. It was originally established in 1983 and inducted 19 JA professionals. After a 10-year hiatus, the JA Staff Alumni Network (JASAN) assumed oversight and sponsorship of the award. In 2023, the eligibility criteria were expanded to include former JA professionals at all levels within the organization.
