Visited @AoHDC this morning where in addition to GED programs, they also offer workforce training in healthcare & IT professions. Phlebotomy students were in need of live patients to practice on, so I “rolled up” my sleeve. Smooth & easy! @dcpcsb

@councilofdc #DCAdultEd students won’t benefit from our investment in them if they can’t get to school. Please give them a #FairShot by restoring the Adult Learner Transit Subsidy

#DCAdultEd is vital to our city! @councilofdc needs to fund adult learners at 100% of the #UPSFF foundation rate as recommended in the 2013 Adequacy Study.

Last week, learners and staff at Academy of Hope testified at the Department of Transportation Performance Oversight Hearing to support the Adult Learner Subsidy Program. This program provides $70 per month for learners to commute to and from school. #AoHCares #DCAdvocacy
