The purpose of the Freshman Senators program is to introduce new senators to the Senate organization and to its traditions, activities and members. 

The Washington Senate has prepared "New Senator Packets" that are given to each new junior senator upon presentation of a Senatorship. Each packet includes a congratulatory letter from the president of the Washington JCI Senate, a brief history of the international, national& state organizations, an explanation of levels of membership in the state organization, and the benefits of joining the Washington JCI Senate.

Under the Washington State JCI Senate "Return the Favor" (RTF) Program, Senators can give back to the Jaycee organization that helped develop their leadership abilities and that provided them with a Senatorship. The Washington State JCI Senate is engaged in activities to strengthen the Jaycees and provide growth. The RTF Program allows Senators to share their ideas and keep the Junior Chamber and the JCI Senate informed. Washington State JCI Senators are encouraged to participate as competition judges at Washington Jaycee conferences and to help their local chapters whenever possible.

United State JCI Senate Foundation Scholarship Program. Each year, $1,000 grants are awarded to graduating high school seniors in the United States, who plan to continue their education at accredited post-secondary colleges, universities or vocational schools. The number and amount of the grants awarded annually are at the discretion of United States JCI Senate Foundation. Grants must be used for educational expenses in the first year of full-time study. Checks awarded will be made out in the name of the recipient and the educational institution of their choice. Through 2007, the U.S. JCI Senate Foundation has awarded 155 grants totaling $156,000.

Any Washington Jaycee or Senator who is aware of a high school senior deserving of a scholarship grant is encouraged to email Dan Harries #46204 at dharries50@gmail.com for an information packet.
More information is available at the U.S. JCI Senate web site.
