Dear [insert name here],

I am writing to invite you to a virtual event with Workforce Solutions Capital Area on Wednesday, September 30, 2020 from 4:00-5:30pm. You can register for the event here:  https://wfs20.com
 
This annual event, entitled The Plan Ahead: Preparing Austin’s Workforce Out of the Pandemic, will look at our community’s progress toward accomplishing the goal to move 10k people out of poverty through skills training. State and local leaders will discuss the status of the regional response to the spike in joblessness during COVID-19, Austin Metro Area Community Workforce Plan, and how business and government leaders can help our region prepare for the present and the immediate future.  Employers are the heroes in our economic recovery, which is why I am reaching out to you in particular.  We need industry representatives to hear our message, and help us get Austin back to work.  

​

I am proud to serve as a Board Member for Workforce Solutions Capital Area (WFSCA).  WFSCA connects local people to local jobs.  We are the leadership/governing body for the region’s workforce system; we are responsible for planning, oversight, and evaluation of workforce development activities in Travis County. WFSCA are a private, publicly-funded non-profit organization.

​

The event will include Gov. Abbott (invited), Travis County Judge Biscoe, Austin Mayor Steve Adler, key private sector employers and fellow board members, from the surrounding region. 

​

It would mean a lot to me if you would register and attend.  Feel free to also invite other colleagues who would like to learn about how Workforce Solutions Capital Area is aiding our economic recovery at this critical time.
