Guilford Works PY2021-22 Annual Report

F R O M T H E D I R E C T O R

Continuous progress has been the driving force behind our organization’s ability to provide exceptional services to the 500,000-plus residents of Guilford County. With our ever-expanding community and employer partnerships, two comprehensive career centers, invigorating emerging workforce center, community hubs and state-of-the-art, 12-stationed mobile career center, our excellent team has created equitable and innovative opportunities for growth in this community. In this new program year, my vision is to expand our community presence through more strategic partnerships beyond the city limits of Greensboro

and High Point and create even more advancement opportunities for job seekers and employers. Meeting people where they are, is how we will continue to operate in the spirit of excellence. I am confident that with our esteemed Board of Directors, driven elected officials, municipal and economic development stakeholders, network of community partners, dedicated employers, outstanding residents, and talented GuilfordWorks and NCWorks staff we can and will have a significant impact in 2022-2023. As always, living and serving in this fabulous community is a pleasure. Sincerely, Dr. Danielle A. Harrison Interim Director GuilfordWorks
