On this episode I spoke with Steve Petermann, the Construction Trades Manager with the Washington State Dept. of Corrections, and also manages the Pre-Apprenticeship program TRAC (TRADES RELATED APPRENTICESHIP COACHING ). Sister Minna Long brought this to my awareness and feel it needs more attention. Sister Minna graduated from this program while apart of the correctional system. Trac was the conduit that brought Minna to the Ironworkers. Steve provides us with information on a program that can make our membership grow and allows us to be that home for people who need those 2nd chances.
