Returnees Welcome Reception (Arizona)

Arizona, this one is for you. JETAASC is heading to Tempe to welcome our newest returnees home, and every JET alum is invited to come celebrate with us.

Coming back from Japan is a strange kind of transition. There is a lot to unpack, and the people most likely to get it are the ones who have been through it themselves. Join us over sushi at Kabuki for a couple of easy hours of catching up, swapping stories, and meeting the JET community here in the Valley.

Whether you touched down last month or a decade ago, there is a seat at the table for you.
