There is no reason why New London should have the 5th highest unemployment rate in the state. With local industry in our region like Electric Boat, L&M Hospital, the Colleges, and our growing creative sector downtown, we need a plan that's puts more New Londoner in these local jobs:
*Coordinate with local employers to understand specific work-force needs
*Bolster work-force readiness programs to prepare workers for local industry jobs
*Create a multi-lingual communication mechanism so New Londoners have access to job information and openings
