Community leaders, in partnership with Spotsylvania County Public Schools, are coordinating a Teen Outreach Summit/Expo on November 23 entitled A Workforce Readiness Conversation. This event is part of an ongoing teen outreach initiative. We were extremely pleased with the number of participants at our spring event and we expect increased participation and attendance at our November 23 event.
The focus of this summit is to raise awareness, availability, opportunity, and options within our community with an ultimate goal to inspire an accomplishment mentality in every attendee. Speakers will be talking about trade, entrepreneurship, and free enterprise. It is our mission to bring community organizations together to provide support for teens, their families, and the area at large.
