Resource fair for WHA residents held at Creekwood Community Center
WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - An education fair and job training expo was held at the Creekwood Community Center for Wilmington Housing Authority residents and neighbors on Thursday, Feb. 9.
Participants received job training information on topics such as dog grooming, 911 operations, graphic design, truck driving, workforce development, CDL and apartment maintenance.
Quanesha Mullins with WHA says she hopes it becomes an annual event that will help bring the community together.
“It’s bringing hope to the community, letting them know we do want the same opportunities as everywhere else,” Mullins said. “And being that transportation is an issue, if we bring it onsite it’s going to be more chances of people getting employed and back into school.”
