• Healthcare job fair brings employers, seekers together

  Job-seekers and employers turned out in force Tuesday for the Southern Westchester BOCES Center for Adult & Community Services Healthcare Job & Transition Fair at our Harrison training center.

   

  Healthcare providers and other employers were on hand, providing networking opportunities in the local job market. Employers say they have jobs to fill, and they appreciate opportunities like this to meet skilled prospective hires. Students, meanwhile, appreciate the chance to network with employers.

• Video brings Sprain Brook Academy students' story to Albany

  Our students are our best advocates when we seek to share the SWBOCES story with our state representatives, as we did on Advocacy Day in Albany on Feb. 27.

   

  The impact of the Sprain Brook Academy, in partnership with the Westchester County Department of Correction, is not an easy story to tell, though. With the use of video, however, we were able to "bring" two young men from the program to the state capitol to share the impact SWBOCES has made in helping put their lives on a better path. Meet Messiah and James.
