I was there was not organized at all no one knew who's looking for work and who's hiring.

Or which industry people are looking to hire/work

My heart went out for those without jobs at all, some drove a few hours just to get there and left empty handed.

The place was a mad house, I think we need skill training programs in our community to move the needle, aguda PCS charges thousands for their courses, question is if we can get something free or cheap and more accessible.

Wait not only the school teachers should work for free but even the jobs training teachers too? This was a poor attempt at a joke.

Not happening. Either YouTube or internship/entry level/entrepreneur and learn along the way.

- Lakewood committe claims that people can watch online faanews reports that a significant portion of Lakewood residents are effectively excluded from participating in or even accessing these virtual meetings. Many families in Lakewood, home to a large population of school-age children, are restricted by school policies requiring parents to pledge that their homes will not contain internet access, smartphones, or other smart devices. This restriction prevents these families from viewing or participating in online meetings.
Compounding the issue, many residents adhere to religious guidelines established by leading rabbis, who advocate refraining from internet-enabled devices, such as smartphones, tablets, or computers. These residents often rely on “kosher phones,” which are stripped of internet access and basic functions like email. As a result, they cannot watch or engage with virtual meetings.“When the township holds meetings exclusively online, it’s as if they’ve locked the door to the majority of the population,” said one frustrated resident. “We’re left without any way to participate in decisions that impact our lives.”

It's a business investment by BMG
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

A private developer would have to cover these expenses, being it's BMG they get  funding I have no problem with it.

My view is however that the focus on resources is not to solve the most pressing issues but rather to cuddle the establishment.
