WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT TASK FORCE

Dr. Allatia Harris, Workforce Task Force Chairman and Vice Chancellor of San Jacinto College welcomed attendees to the Workforce Task Force meeting on October 20, 2022 at Economic Alliance Houston Port Region in Deer Park.

We were fortunate once again to have Parker Harvey, Principal Economist for the Gulf Coast Workforce Board/Workforce Solutions sharing his annual economic update and his expertise on jobs and the economy. Parker is responsible for planning and conducting labor market/economic studies and analyses, including collecting data and writing reports, in support of the Gulf Coast Workforce Board and its operating affiliate, Workforce Solutions. As always the group had great questions and Mr. Harvey gave invaluable information to the audience. This task force meets on the third Thursday every other month, from 3:00pm – 4:00pm, and our next meeting is February 16, 2023.

DREAM IT DO IT

The goal of the Dream It Do It Southeast Texas program is to highlight career opportunities in our region by working with our industry partners who volunteer. We focus on petrochemical, logistics, transportation, maritime and construction industries. In 2022 we made over 7000 connections. We had a very busy fourth quarter of 2022 and spoke with over 1700 students, parents, teachers, administrators, and underemployed adults at 21 classroom or career fair presentations. School Districts that we visited were Pasadena ISD, Alvin ISD, Channelview ISD, Crosby ISD, Deer Park ISD, Galena Park ISD, Goose Creek CISD, Houston ISD, Clear Creek ISD, Aldine ISD, Alief ISD, Sheldon ISD, San Jacinto College and Houston Community College. October celebrates Manufacturing Day and we were able to contribute with participation from our industry partners at BASF, Turner Industries, ExxonMobil, LyondellBasell, Ineos, United Salt, and DOW. Lee College and San Jacinto College led seven Manufacturing Day Events sponsoring 181 students and 38 influencers. Dream It Do It took part in The Construction & Maintenance Education Foundation (CMEF) Construction Expo with 21 different high schools in attendance. We also worked with One Goal Graduation in October and November. Our volunteers bring invaluable insight into the high-demand, high-wage careers in our area. Thank you to Darrien Batiste (Turner Industries), Britton Smith (Economic Alliance), Ceola Hart (Shell Pipeline), Patty LaLonde (Junior Achievement), Blake Goodall (ExxonMobil), and Campbell Burke (G&H Towing). If you’d also like to share your knowledge with the future workforce, we are always looking for volunteers to come speak about their careers in the petrochemical, logistics, maritime, construction, and transportation industries.
