In this webinar, participants will hear stories and advice from three construction workforce development leaders about how they position both their organizations and themselves to engage in the policy arena.  Presenters will discuss how they identify and develop their policy agenda, how they insert themselves into policy discussions, how they build or support coalitions who are aligned with their efforts, what strategies they use to advance their policy agenda, and how their policy efforts complement their on-the-ground work with those working or seeking work in the construction sector. The webinar will feature presentations and discussion from:

• John Gaal, Director of Training and Workforce Development, Carpenters’ District Council of Greater St. Louis & Vicinity
• Jason Perkins-Cohen, Executive Director, Job Opportunities Task Force in Baltimore, MD
• Heather Winfrey, Executive Director, Apprenticeship and Nontraditional Employment for Women (ANEW) in Seattle, WA
