On September 28, 2010, the office of Congressman John Lewis agreed to an internship (WBL) with the students at the Atlanta Job Corps Center. Due to the Center Director, Annie T. Matthews, long term professional relationship with Congressman John Lewis , she was able to convince him to give the students at the Atlanta Job Corps Center an opportunity to work with his staff members. This opportunity will provide valuable training in customers service and great exposure to our community. It will also give an opportunity to show case Job Corps students skill sets and professional talent. Mrs. Matthews believed that our students are better or just as good as those in any school system in the State of Georgia, if given the opportunity to prove themselves and his staff agreed. Six students were selected and has started working with the Congressman staff Leslie Smalls, Legislative Aide.
