Jackie Joyner-Kersee Food Agriculture Nutrition Innovation Center Partnership
The Danforth Center JJK FAN team works collectively with our partners to spark scientific curiosity, instill technological passion, and foster innovation. We offer education and outreach activities along with internships focused on plant science, urban agriculture, and technology to youth from East St. Louis and beyond.
We have full time staff located on the Jackie Joyner-Kersee Foundation campus committed to fostering innovation while helping young people envision themselves in rewarding careers. By providing such opportunities, we are contributing to the growth and development of both the local community and surrounding region.
