Engage Your Local Chambers and Business Associations to Support WIA Reauthorization:

Today, NAWB sent out a national press release pertaining to chambers of commerce and business association support of WIA reauthorization across the country. NAWB Board Chair, Laurie Moran, has been instrumental in partnering with the L.A. Chamber of Commerce in engaging chambers across the country in this special outreach initiative. We have created a section on the Workforce Investment Works campaign website to continue garnering support. Please take a moment to review the release and the website here.

Also, please click here to access a press release template for your local chamber's use. If you do not see your local chamber's signature currently posted on the site, please contact them and ask them for their support, along with a customized quote in the press release. Please distribute to your local media and media contacts.

We have also included a two-page paper on why chambers and business associations support WIA and NAWB. This is a critical time for our system to take action and showcase the support of chambers and business associations for WIA.

Sincerely,

Ronald D. Painter
