He will tell us about the Summer Employment Registration, (MPLOY) signup program for ages 14-22 and also bringing back another community initiative involving our young people. Next, being designated a Neighborhood Champion is no small feat, but one organization, Dress for Success was recently recognized by Bank of America as a 2023 awardee for its work in advancing economic mobility in underserved neighborhoods.
