Mayor Michelle Wu today announced the creation of the Cabinet for Worker Empowerment led by Trinh Nguyen who will serve as the City’s Chief of Worker Empowerment.

OWD was recently awarded $3 million from the US Department of Labor to create and expand equitable pre-apprenticeship pathways to Registered Apprenticeship Programs (RAP), as well as Equity Partnerships.

As the lead applicant, OWD brought together partners from key organizations that serve unemployed, underemployed, incumbent workers, community college students, and BIPOC individuals within the Greater Boston Region.
