Apprentice Supportive Services - Washington State
Welcome to The Spotlight,
On today’s show we meet Karen Dove, Executive Director for ANEW and Amesha Lawton of the Urban League. Both run programs in Washington State that provide assistance for our carpenter apprentices and those interested in becoming professional craftspeople in the building trades.
We’ll start our conversation by learning what the ANEW program is and how Karen orchestrates the distribution of funds to help offset the financial burdens many apprentices experience while learning their craft.
She will then talk with us about RISE UP and its goal of creating jobsites that are respectful and inclusive through education and accountability.
Next, Amesha will introduce us to her valuable work at The Urban League. We will discuss how this grant funded program delivers much needed assistance to those in underrepresented and disadvantage communities when looking for opportunities to better their lives through careers in the trades.
This episode highlights primarily apprentice and pre-apprentice programs in the Washington State with a focus on the Seattle Puget Sound Area. To find career enhancing opportunities in Southwestern Washington and Oregon State, check out my interview with Penny Painter from the AKANA organization.
If you know a group or initiative that would be a good candidate for The Spotlight, please send me an email to [email protected]. Be sure to include the contact information for the organization and how it has contributed to better the lives of our members.
