今天为第一届“重建计划”班级举行了毕业典礼，六名成员因完成了一项面向18至25岁寻求重建生活的劳动力准备计划而获得证书。

丹支持人民币的博彩平台社区学院和丹支持人民币的博彩平台市之间的合作伙伴关系，重建项目提供10至30天的免费培训，包括建筑、木工、电气、管道和焊接。 不需要GED或高中文凭。

“I am so proud of you all. You are the first (graduates), and to me, that is proof of what you need and what we have works,” said Jacqueline Gill Powell, president of DCC. “I want to encourage you to not let this stop. 你已经向你自己，向你的家人，向你的老师，向我们所有人证明了你有能力取得成功。 Please continue on.”

Robert David, the gang violence prevention and youth services coordinator for the City of Danville, brought the program’s vision to DCC.

“I didn’t believe that a mistake or a (bad) decision or an opportunity you didn’t take when you were 15, 16 or 17, should be the determining factor of your life,” said David, who serves as vice-chair on the Danville 社区 College Advisory Board. “That is why we call it ‘Rebuild.’ This an opportunity to rebuild your life and rebuild your dreams. … Second chances are an opportunity and the pathway to a greater future. Just keep pushing forward.”

All six of today’s graduates have chosen to continue their workforce training, with five enrolling in the electrical and plumbing classes and one enrolling in the carpentry class. 他们还可以选择当学徒或现在就找工作。

下一个“重建工程”核心课程将于下个月开始，教授建筑行业的基础知识。 已经有12名学生注册了。 DCC官员表示，核心课程将每六到八周提供一次。

The program is an extension of the City of Danville’s Project Imagine, which is a work readiness program geared toward giving gang-affiliated teens a future off the streets. Project Imagine last year was named the winner of the Virginia Municipal League’s President’s Award, the top award for innovative solutions by a local government.
