“I would actively argue it’s the employers’ obligation to seek those people out,” says Yale New Haven Health’s Paul Mounds, Jr during a forum in New London on what’s needed to reconnect 60,000 young people with career pathways. The forum is the final in a series hosted by the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities' 119K Commission. CBIA’s Chris DiPentima said employers should pivot to more skill-based hiring, adding “we don’t have enough people actively engaged with our labor force.” #transformCT #workforce #119KCommission Dalio Education

“It crosses all different types of industries when it comes to the cost of fuel and how it impacts either the bottom line of the business or ultimately what they have to charge to consumers to make ends meet here in Connecticut,” Chris Davis, vice president of public policy at the CBIA - Connecticut Business & Industry Association, said in an interview. “Every dollar that we can save on fuel costs is a dollar that can be either reinvested into a company to offer even better goods and services, or offer lower prices to consumers.” https://lnkd.in/dfs4FSMc

“This is one of those moments where in the worst of times, it can bring out the best in people,” says Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development’s Daniel O'Keefe after touring businesses that suffered extensive flood damage in Seymour with Gov. Ned Lamont and other state and local leaders. A new $5 million state grant program will help small businesses recover and rebuild. “We need to come back stronger and better. But we still need a little help,” says 67 Family Diner owner Mike Abe. #smallbusiness #grantprogram #Connecticut #community #rebuilding #stormdamage

President & CEO of CBIA, Connecticut’s largest business organization. Working with affiliates CONNSTEP and ReadyCT to build a thriving business climate for the benefit of all residents.
Very sobering to tour the Klarides Village shopping plaza in Seymour, where 14 of 16 businesses suffered extensive damage from the devastating August 18 flooding. Kudos to the Lamont administration for the multi-agency effort in all affected parts of the state to repair damage to roads, buildings, and infrastructure, and for yesterday's announcement of a $5 million emergency support fund. Despite the devastation, there's a strong sense of resilience in these communities, as displayed by the sign outside the 67 Family Diner: "We will be back stronger and better than ever!!"
