Pacific Mountain Workforce Development Council launches “Opportunity Begins Here” campaign

Posted

The Pacific Mountain Workforce Development Council (PacMtn) has announced the launch of its new “Opportunity Begins Here” campaign.

This initiative is designed to connect job seekers, employers and community partners in the Pacific Mountain region, and offer clear pathways to stable, well-paying jobs across diverse industries, according to a news release from the council.

It aims to inspire hope and action by showcasing local opportunities, providing access to tailored training programs and fostering collaboration with employers to fill critical roles that drive economic growth in Grays Harbor, Lewis, Mason, Pacific and Thurston counties, according to the release.



“At PacMtn, we believe that economic prosperity begins with connecting people to meaningful work,” said William Westmoreland, CEO of PacMtn, in the news release. “The Opportunity Begins Here campaign is a call to action for all employers, community leaders and job seekers to come together and create a stronger, more resilient workforce that will benefit our region and the people we serve.”

Four groups are focused on by the campaign: job seekers looking for career opportunities, employers seeking skilled workers, community partners promoting workforce development, and workforce system partners who support career growth through training and resources.

PacMtn invites individuals to explore the resources available through this campaign by visiting opportunitybeginshere.org and following “Opportunity Begins Here” on social media to stay informed about upcoming events, training programs and job openings.
