Montana Job Corps Coalition, Above and Beyond

Congratulations to the Montana Job Corps Coalition comprised of Anaconda JCCCC, Trapper Creek JCCCC, and Kicking Horse JC.  The Pact was recently recognized and honored at the 2012 National Job Corps Association Policy Forum held in Washington D.C. 

The three Job Corps Centers received the Above and Beyond Award for their successful joint action in 2011 to meet with state and national policymakers and educate them on the Job Corps program and the substantial benefits it provides for young adults, local economies, and the country at large.

Four Anaconda JCCCC students attended the Montana Job Corps Coalition’s event hosted in August 2011 at Trapper Creek JCCCC for Montana’s Honorable Congressman Denny Rehberg.
