Let's Build An Employer Partnership

What’s in it for you?
1. Greater understanding of employer-driven adult literacy models, and
2. The knowledge to build your own advocacy “pitch” for partnering with a local employer.
Presenter: Jacqueline Aguilera
Organization: Mayor’s Office for Adult Literacy – Houston




Resolving Attendance and Recruitment Issues Through Community Collaboration
