LYNNWOOD, WA—Rep. Rick Larsen (WA-02) today toured WorkSource Lynnwood – a newly opened one-stop-shop for job seekers. “WorkSource Lynnwood offers programs designed to meet the employment needs of the increasingly diverse communities in the Second District,” said Larsen. “Finding a job is not always easy – and the variety of services that WorkSource offers can help folks train for and succeed in the job market.” Click HERE for a high quality photo from today’s event. WorkSource Lynnwood, which opened in April, is a comprehensive one-stop-shop offering job seekers training opportunities, placement assistance and access to employment resources. Larsen has consistently supported legislation to increase job training opportunities for both youth and adults. His Youth Access to American Jobs Act would create a pathway for students from their junior year in high school through community college and into an apprenticeship, helping students gain skills directly related to workforce needs in their area. Larsen is also supporting legislation to encourage more women and minorities to enter STEM fields. ### |
