    We Want Jobs!

    By sarahkat1013  |  Posted May 5, 2009  |  Washington, District of Columbia
     

    In a difficult economy too often we hear politicians and elected officials talking about the 40 year old workers who have been pushed out of the workforce and how we must work to save them with new tech training.

     

    As a generation that has that tech training, we can attest that it doesn't matter.  Millennials have unbelievable experience with technology and connectivity, yet we have the highest unemployment rate of any generation at 33%.

     

    Why do elected officials ignore our needs?

     

    We'll duscuss it all this summer with a summit for youth.  Attend the launch on May 7th and learn more.
