Boston - August 2024

About the Program:  During this three day joint meeting of the National Youth Employment Council  and the City of Boston's Office of Workforce Development, over thirty Boston and national Workforce Program leaders shared their programs' challenges and successes.  Our presentation was co-authored by Vernon Morris, Ph.D (ASU Foundation Professor).  Arianna Ortiz, an alum of the first Emerging Geoscience Scholar program and past program assistant, joined me and spoke about her experiences as  participant and co-organizer.  Talk about impact and outcomes? Check out the presentation, and you will get an overview of the ecosystem of careers in infrastructure as well as the "then and now" stories of several of our program members.
