"We Want to Work"
A National Campaign to Employ the most Discriminated People in America
/i//15428-51AT.jpg

Who said we didn’t want to work? Why is there a need for a Guest Worker Program? Are our black men, veterans and youth invisible? The answers are very simple. Our Democratic leadership, Black Churches and elected officials have consistently failed to deliver and empower our community. This has resulted in our communities having the highest un-employment rates in over 40 years. More Black men are incarcerated than ever before and our existence in this country is almost dismal.

 

While we develop solutions for the aforementioned obstacles, our fight is to knock hopelessness on the butt. Our goal is to raise up the men and women in our communities to stray away from handouts while becoming independent and viably productive components of a new and thriving segment of our communities. Join us in changing the socio-economic plight of Black America.

Operation Re-Direction

This program was created by the Honorable Mayor Omar Bradley during his administration in the city of Compton. One of many successful programs created and developed by Mr. Bradley, this program addressed one of the greatest problems facing the city - How to bring the large number of convicted black men back into the labor pool of our community.

 

This program provided these unskilled men an opportunity to learn a trade redeveloping the blight residential and vacant lots throughout the city of Compton. The program renovated all of the vacant HUD homes in the city and maintained the cleanliness of all of the city’s vacant lots. These men received the OJT needed to seek employment with general contractors throughout the area.

Brownfield Environmental Training

The Brownfield Environmental Training Program is designed to train individuals in disadvantaged communities on the environmental dangers of their surroundings, how to eliminate them and maintain a safe community. Training ranges from abatement to remediation and courses cover all forms of hazardous situations existing and created in those communities.

Apprentice & Journeymen Training

The development of and working relationships with unions to reach into our communities is very important to developing work forces among the unemployed ranks. The relationship between our communities and unions are linked by virtue of their very existence. Our role in this relationship is to provide outreach to insure that members of our community our informed of these programs and have an opportunity to participate in them as well.

Veterans Training & Placement

Probably the most important demographic in our community based on the role they have played towards our national security while being the most neglected demographic segment as well. We stand for those who put their lives on the line for us. Veterans and disabled veterans will have a mandated priority in all of our training and placement programs. That is the American way.

Youth Training Program

Who will fight for our youth? Who will make up that village needed to raise them? These questions have been overlooked and skirted by our leadership for too long. If we don’t do it, it won’t be done – it’s that simple! Our program is designed to fill the void left by our school districts’ upon removing vocational training from the curriculums. No longer can we allow excuses for our children’s failure.
