As a highly successful economic development leader, Horton has helped to guide Springfield, Ohio through a dramatic revitalization. Thousands of jobs have been created and that’s created an increased need for workforce development and attraction. As an organization, the Greater Springfield Partnership decided to begin by engaging youth in middle and high school. Listen to their strategies, best practices, and how the plan is working. Horton also discusses, at a high level, how economic development has changed and how The Greater Springfield Partnership has tackled issues like child care and housing.
