UNITE-LA supported the R.E.A.L. Coalition’s Education and Workforce Development Committee meeting last month, which focused on discussing regional workforce development programs with potential for replication.

The committee was joined by Dr. Mark Martin, Bay Area Regional Director for Advanced Manufacturing Workforce Development for the California Community Colleges, along with representatives from the San Gabriel Valley Economic Partnership and Inland Empire Economic Partnership. UNITE-LA provided an update on the state budget and urged the Coalition to advance the committee’s budget letter and bill support requests.
