Janet Mill Announces $12.3m For Apprenticeship Programs

LEWISTON, Maine — Fourteen organizations will receive $12.3 million in grants to expand apprentice programs, Gov. Janet Mills announced Friday. The funding is expected to provide more than 3,000 Mainers with apprenticeship or pre-apprenticeship opportunities, more than doubling the number of apprentices, the governor said. “These grants reflect the state’s commitment to making strategic investments that benefit both those who are searching for good-paying careers, and employers needing a pipeline of skilled workers,” said Laura Fortman, commissioner of the Maine Department of Labor. The announcement was made at Lewiston Adult Education, one of the grant recipients.
