Greetings!

I hope you found the workforce recovery training session beneficial and that you have been able to make use of the ideas, information and resources discussed during the workshop. I know that many of you have identified and begun to implement workforce recovery activities in your local community.  

 

I look forward to hearing about your programs as we continue the next phase of Project Compass.
