[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in Jack and Jill in the 60's and have been a member of my current chapter for twenty-six years.   As with anything, the organization is what
you bring to it as well as engaging in the opportunities it provides.   I can personally say that  the organization has evolved throughout the years. Yes, there may be some pretentious people in certain chapters
 but our chapter appears to be void of much of that.  I can personally say that I have met some very wonderful people in Jack and Jill.
 It is an excellent organization for our youth and teens to learn about parliamentary procedure, the financial
component of fundraising, networking, working in the community and leadership.  The social aspect for our teens is remarkable.  Our motto is let's work, let's play and make
no mistake, Jack and Jill teens are encouraged to enjoy the social attributes that come with membership. In other words, the teens get to party and at some events
it may be six hundred teens and their guests attending and higher.  Additionally, J&J's legislative component has voiced their concerns on
matters important to African Americans.  They are no longer silent and that is a good thing.  If you are interested in joining, contact your local chapter.  Each 
chapter has different criteria to join.   In our chapter, it only requires someone to invite you.  I hope that this has been of some help to someone.
