  The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) provides the opportunity for
ground-breaking observations of asteroids. It covers wavelength regions that
are unavailable from the ground, and does so with unprecedented sensitivity.
The main-belt and Trojan asteroids are all observable at some point in the JWST
lifetime. We present an overview of the capabilities for JWST and how they
apply to the asteroids as well as some short science cases that take advantage
of these capabilities.
