Jane Censoria Cajes-Yap (born January 10, 1990) is a former president of the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) or Youth Council in the Philippines and wife of Tagbilaran City Mayor John Geesnell Yap. After winning the SK presidency in Bohol, Philippines, Cajes was elected President in the National SK Federation and with her position, also earned her a concomitant role as the Ex Officio Commissioner of the National Youth Commission (NYC).

Cajes is the second child of Trinidad Mayors Roberto Cajes and Judith Cajes. She completed her elementary and secondary education at the Holy Spirit School of Tagbilaran in Tagbilaran City. She studied at the Assumption College San Lorenzo for one year before transferring to the Ateneo de Manila University.

Cajes was the first woman to be elected president in the SK National Federation, and was the second president of SK National Federation who hailed from outside the Luzon area (the first being Ryan Culima of Butuan). This made her the President of the federation with the help of former Governor Erico B. Aumentado who convinced all governors to support her as the president of the federation.

She married Tagbilaran City Councilor and businessman John Geesnell "Baba" Yap on February 5, 2011. The wedding was called the "Wedding of the Year" in Bohol.

Yap currently works at her family business in Tagbilaran City called Bohol Tropics Resort.

In her first year of term, Cajes initiated the Tri-Media Program, said to be the first in SK history in order to provide information about the Filipino youth. The said project composed of three components on the media- the internet, newspaper and radio. Various youth issues, concerns and other youth interest are tackled in the program. The first component is the www.skbohol.com, the first SK website in the Philippines. The second component is the quarterly publication, the SK Today. The maiden issue of SK Today was in Dec. 2005. The SK on Air, the official radio program made its first airing on April 2, 2006.

Cajes attended the Plan International London Incorporated on October 8–9, 2008 in Woking, Surrey, United Kingdom, London to serve as one of the panelists to interview the applicants for the new CEO of the Plan International London.
