Connecting Alumni With New Possibilities 
In 
The Pink and Blue    

The Alumni Connections Regional Task Force committee is charged with exploring strategy, connecting resources, and initiating our engagement to expand our regional efforts to reconnect with our Jack and Jill Alumni throughout the MidWest Region.

Through regional partnerships, our goal is to create a strategic plan to identify and develop “exclusive” Alumni opportunities such as:

• Regional Programming (AWD, TLC, MC) 
• Internships
• Job Placement
• Mentorships
• Graduate/Professional School Programs and Scholarships
• Regional and National Social Events
• Webinars/TED Talks 

Our key focus is to support our next generation of members through legacy engagement on a chapter and regional level, leadership opportunities within Jack & Jill and beyond, and mentorship for younger alumni. Our focus is to align our efforts with the key life transitions and life stages of our Alumni before legacy status becomes a reality.
