Greetings, Colleagues:

It would be an understatement to say that the U.S. economy has hit a bump in the road. The position of the leadership of NCPN is that one of the best ways to turn things around is to do everything possible to ensure that America has a strong, well-educated workforce. That’s what NCPN is all about—providing a means for educators, business people, and policymakers to join forces in devising the best possible Career Pathways for our nation’s young people.

In this issue you will find several encouraging articles about people who are making a difference in the lives of students in their regions. We hope they’ll inspire you as they do us. And, as always, if you would like to share your success stories, please do so.

Be sure to visit www.ncpn.info for the latest conference information.

Many thanks and keep up the good work.

David Bond, Director, NCPN (www.ncpn.info)
