Join Kyle Roed as he speaks with Janelle Duray with Jobs for America's Graduates (JAG) and C. Mitch Taylor with SHRM. The topics discussed include: How JAG supports graduation rates for those with significant barriers to success, SHRM and JAG's partnership, and how HR mentors help students succeed.
Janelle is the Executive Vice President for JAG, where her passion lies where education and workforce development intersect. Too many of our youth are held back by systemic barriers. She believes we must help youth navigate systems in order to break cycles of poverty and provide upward mobility. Ultimately, this supports a thriving economy to benefit us all.
Jobs for America’s Graduates does this through public and private partnerships at the national, state and local levels. After nearly 40 years in this space, JAG is more relevant than ever and I am humbled to be a part of this work.
Mitch is the Director of Public Policy for the Society for National Human Resources Management (SHRM). The Society for Human Resource Management is a professional human resources membership association headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia. SHRM promotes the role of HR as a profession and provides education, certification, and networking to its members, while lobbying Congress on issues pertinent to labor management. With over 300,000 members worldwide, SHRM is the largest professional HR organization in the world. Connect with Mitch at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cmitchtaylor/
