Our Mission Statement
We respect and care for all human connections we make, company or agent, friend or stranger. No account is too small, and no relationship is too insignificant. We have a passion for insurance education, teaching, and innovation. We endure because we are not stopped by challenges, but guided by them. We commit to do our best, to take our work seriously, and to never stop having fun.
Headline from the First Issue of The Marketeer
The philosophy on which JSA was built in 1981, “We Are in Business Because of You” still guides everything we do today.
