An organization that focuses on working in diverse environments, bringing together big corporations, local government, urban/economic development, and smaller family businesses. Our goal is to provide job opportunities, investment opportunities, neighborhood development opportunities, and youth/adulthood development. We are aware of the lack of technical education on the MS Gulf Coast, and we are striving to fill that void by obtaining instructors in the field of coding, website design, app design, and instructors who deal with workforce technical needs such as Primavera P6 certification, Microsoft Project certification, and Medical Coding certification.
