Congralutaions to Clean Team Member Ms. Glover

Tuesday October 8, 2013

Congratulations to Clean Team member, Ms. Glover, for her hiring as a permanent employee with Miller & Long Construction working on the residential building at 450 K St. Ms. Glover joined the Ready to Work (RTW) program in August of 2012 and was assigned to the Mount Vernon Triangle CID. She demonstrated a strong work ethic and leadership by helping her teammates both on and off the job. Soon after she joined the team, she was promoted to be a team leader. Ms. Glover has been a model RTW participant and we wish her much success in the future.

Mount Vernon Triangle launched its Clean Teams in partnership with RTW in 2007. RTW is a transitional job program that helps formerly homeless men and women by providing them job training, case management, financial literacy, spiritual counseling, business etiquette and technology skills. The work readiness and job placement programs reflect the demands of the workplace and provide comprehensive support to RTW employees to obtain jobs upon completion of the program. Since 2007, over 100 men and women have gained valuable work experience at the Mount Vernon Triangle CID and have successfully completed the RTW program.
