JA BizTown, a program of Junior Achievement, provides a tremendous hands-on experience for young people to learn about work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy.  Todd and Evan uncover how it makes a difference in kids' lives in both the short and long-term.  They interview Gina Huntington, Director of JA BizTown in Portland, OR and Sam Freeman, a college freshman who participated in the program eight years ago and reflects on his experience.
