The SMART Local 100 Training Facility has been a hotbed of activity in recent months with visits from US Dept of Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta and now former NAACP Chairman and MD Gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous.
According to Jealous, “College isn’t the only pathway to a successful future,” he added that if elected, he will “invest in apprenticeship programs to make sure that all our kids have every opportunity to succeed.”
