September 18 Webinar: Creation of Access Point Networks to Expand One-Stop Outreach
How can you expand your reach into the community- and your access to new workers- without straining your budget? More than fifty Local Workforce Areas across the country are training Faith-Based and Community Organizations (FBCOs) to act as Access Points by teaching them to provide job search services and One-Stop referrals on-site in hard-to-serve communities. These FBCOs serve as Access Points through non-financial partnerships, based on shared commitments.
A September 18 webinar will provide some answers and first-hand observations. You will hear from two peers about the benefits and lessons learned in selecting and training their Access Points. You will also receive details about the opportunity to receive Distance Coaching on how to implement Access Points locally, based on the new guide "The Access Point Toolkit: Sharing How Access to Resources Empowers."
The presenters include:
Ned Carr
Director, Peninsula WorkLink, One-Stop Operator
Judith Simmons
Strategic Project Manager and Communications & Marketing Coordinator, Full Employment Council, Kansas City, Missouri
The webinar begins at 2:00 p.m. (EST) on Wednesday, September 18.
