YWCA Greater Los Angeles Presents LA Job Corps Urban Campus Construction Celebration
, February 09 /Businesswire/ - YWCA Greater Los Angeles:
| WHO |
|
YWCA Greater Los Angeles and the students of its Job Corps program proudly present the Los Angeles Job Corps Urban Campus Construction Celebration. Special invited guests include Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal Allard, Senator Barbara Boxer, Congresswoman Diane Watson, City Controller Wendy Greuel, Supervisor Gloria Molina, Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas, City Councilmember Jan Perry, City Councilmember Bernard Parks, City Councilmember Herb Wesson and other dignitaries. |
| WHAT |
| The Los Angeles Job Corps Urban Campus Construction Celebration will feature a short program to thank the entities that contributed to the success of the YWCA GLA's Job Corps Urban Campus building. The project is the recipient of an $82 million stimulus grant from the United States Department of Labor, which will fund a 20 year lease agreement for the new building. The project funded with various resources, leveraged $70 million in new market tax credits from organizations, which partly funded the project's construction costs, including Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, Enterprise Community Investment and LISC and the Los Angeles Development Fund (LADF), managed by the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Los Angeles (CRA/LA). Over 900 jobs including 60 jobs dedicated to train our job corps students will be generated by the construction related costs for the new building. |
| The Urban Campus, now under construction, is centered in the heart of downtown Los Angeles' South Park business district. The YWCA Los Angeles Job Corps Construction Celebration event will be hosted against the backdrop of the construction of the new building. An information fair showcasing training disciplines will be hosted by the students for local businesses to learn more about their programs and skill sets for future hiring opportunities. |
| Guests will be invited to contribute items to a commemorative time capsule, which will be sealed and displayed in the lobby of the new Urban Campus building for 20 years. |
| The seven story, 154,000 square foot building will contain a state of the art library, computer lab, modernized medical and dental clinic and infirmary, classrooms and residential units for 400 students. The YWCA GLA has served the LA area since 1894 and began administering the Los Angeles Job Corps Program in 1965. It provides residential and non-residential programming at no cost to homeless, emancipated, and at-risk youth ages 16-24. Job Corps employs a holistic career development training model that integrates the teaching of academic, vocational, employability skills, social competencies and wellness/health services. |
