Trade Adjustment Assistance State Coordinator
Greater Nashville Area, Tn
State TAA Coordinator for TN. Oversee the Trade Adjustment Assistance Program. TAA is a federal program that assist workers that have lost employment due to foreign trade, access and utilize skilled training through TCAT's, Community Colleges, State &/or Private Universities, Job Assistance with travel allowances, relocation allowances, and salary subsidizes if new employment is located and worker is over 50 years of age. The really nice thing about this program is, it costs the workers or their employers nothing. And in the end the workers and their family's lives are greatly impacted by the opportunities provided through this program.I have almost 20 years working in this program and have seen many workers at the lowest point of their lives, loss of their jobs, go on to bigger and better things through the services this program has available to them. It has been my privilege to be apart of this program and serve the residence of TN.
