In February 2017, three of my fellow TAACCCT grantees and I presented in a WorkforceGPS webinar titled TAACCCT Tales: Using StoryTelling to Share Project Successes. We come from four community colleges spread across the nation, from the East Coast states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, the Midwestern state of Wisconsin, and the far-flung volcanic islands of Hawai’i.
