(BEDFORD) – The Lawrence County Workforce Coalition, an arm of the Lawrence County Economic Growth Council, announces that Connor Williams has joined the staff as Program Manager.
In her new role, Williams will support the workforce development mission by the continued implementation of the Introduction to the Local Jobs And Skills course as well as focus on adding internships and apprenticeships with employers in our area.
