Mayor Domenic J. Sarno, CAFO TJ Plante and Chief of Staff Tom Ashe met with Western Mass Economic Development Council (EDC) President and CEO Rick Sullivan and Springfield College President Dr. Mary-Beth Cooper today to continue discussions on workforce development. We are eyeing future plans and initiatives to attract and enhance the filling of thousands of job needs.

Mayor Sarno states, “It is always good meeting with President Mary-Beth Cooper and EDC President Rick Sullivan.  Springfield College has been a staple in our community for over 135 years and their educational, cultural and economic impact in Springfield and the region has been significant.  My Administration is committed to working with President Cooper, the EDC, our local college and university presidents, and all local and regional business and nonprofit partners as we work towards another transformative opportunity to recover and thrive to defeat this COVID-19 pandemic in order to fill the tremendous and challenging void of job/career applicants.”
