Ready to make an impact? Inviting a national guest is a great way to energize your members, grow your chapter, and connect your community to JCI USA’s mission.

Each request helps us match your needs with the right national leader; someone ready to inspire, train, and collaborate with your team.

Ways to Engage

Internal: Member training, strategy sessions, socials, conferences, or keynotes.
External: Community events, youth outreach, media interviews, or PR/social media workshops.
Advocacy: Meetings with local, state, or federal officials to amplify JCI USA’s voice and causes.

2026 Focus Areas

National visits should align with at least one of these goals:

1. Build Leadership Visibility
Highlight JCI USA’s national leadership brand by sharing member stories, hosting workshops, or recording podcast features that amplify your chapter’s success.

2. Activate Changemakers
Engage young people in your community through hands-on service projects, impact grants, or leadership programs like MILE Academy.

3. Strengthen the Member Experience
Help members feel seen and supported by encouraging profile updates, sharing resources, and showcasing chapter achievements in national communications.

4. Equip Chapters for Growth
Ensure chapters know where to find and use national tools, introduce the new resource library, and gather feedback to improve support across the country.
