Developing Lompoc's Youth Workforce
Pathways is a cornerstone of the Lompoc Youth Workforce Pipeline. Spearheaded by Santa Barbara County Third District Supervisor Joan Hartmann, the community partnership initiative connects local middle and high school students with career readiness training, professional networks, and paid work experience, bridging the gap between education and local employment.
