Dallas Morning News Article: Canvassers Bring Job Resources Directly to Pleasant Grove Residents

Pleasant Grove residents are gaining more direct access to job training and career support, thanks to a growing effort to bring resources straight to their doorsteps. Groundwork Outreach was recently featured in The Dallas Morning News for this work in partnership with Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas.

Through this campaign, Groundwork’s canvassing team is meeting residents where they are, sharing information about free workforce programs, and listening to better understand community needs.
