The Earn and Learn Participant Advisory Council has embarked on a trip to Washington D.C. to help our elected officials understand the importance of programs like Earn and Learn that help people get back on their feet.
“I enjoyed speaking and telling my story and really hope this trip changes the future of our programs.”

“I was happy to have seen John Conyers, Sandy Levin, and Gary Peters. I believe we really made an impact on these three.”

Congressman Conyers was very interested in what we were doing and enjoyed all of our personal stories.

“My favorite part of the trip was when Congressman Sander Levin made a joke about my tie. And I really felt a connection when he said he went to Central High school.”

“Gary Peters and his staff showed me great support on my transportation issues, and had a good understanding of Detroit’s transportation issues.”
