What makes the Des Moines Jaycees different from other Young Professional groups?
"I have been to other Young Professional groups and they always felt like it was about exchanging your business card, but the Jaycees is more about making a lasting connection." - Taylor McKee
While my educational and professional background gave me the skills I needed to network and train effectively, my JCI experience gave me the confidence to set up my own business, and the skills to manage and market it effectively. My leadership abilities have grown exponentially since joining JCI Des Moines. I have had the privilege to hold multiple leadership positions within the local and state organization. I have also grown my business through the connections I have made in JCI. There is no better group of active young professionals than JCI Des Moines. - Dr. Ryan Anderson (Member 5 years)
"I am newer to the Jaycees, but after meeting a current member and attending a couple of meetings, I felt immediately at home. This group has great energy and seem to really care about their members."- Tiff Evans
