We are fortunate to receive this assistance as an outgrowth of the Network’s participation in the national jobs summit sponsored by the US Interagency Council on Homelessness in Washington, D.C., in October, 2014. Western Massachusetts was invited along with 11 other communities nationwide to share its success with its Secure Jobs Initiative.  We are excited to continue to grow our success through these training opportunities.
