Two organizations are coming together to better serve the Austin community. Wednesday, the Central Texas Food Bank and Workforce Solutions Capital Area announced their partnership, which aims to create a one-stop-shop for members to get their food and job needs.
Being unemployed and needing help putting food on the table often go hand-in-hand. Now, people can get help with both at the Central Texas Food Bank headquarters.
“We’re bringing staff resources right here co-located with the Central Texas Food Bank to bring workforce, job training services to customers that also receive services from the food bank,” Workforce Solutions Capital Area CEO Tamara Atkinson said.
