Support Women and Minorities in registered Apprenticeship Programs

For the first time in 30 years, the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") is planning to amend the laws relating to how women and minorities participate in Registered Apprenticeship Programs. As part of the process to change the laws, the DOL will be asking the public to comment about how to improve these laws.

This is a rare and important opportunity for tradeswomen and their allies  to tell the government about what is and what is not working in registered apprenticeship programs. It is critical that the government have a clear understanding of the challenges faced by women and minorities in these programs so that appropriate changes can be made to the laws.

Legal Momentum and the National Taskforce on Tradeswomen's Issues want to make sure that the government hears from you.
