Kimberly Porter enrolled in the WIOA program in January 2024. She was a single mom of three, working part-time and attending Ogeechee Technical College’s LPN program. Kimberly needed financial assistance to complete her program of study and become an LPN. WIOA provided Kimberly with transportation stipends, assistance paying for books, and paid for testing and fees associated with receiving her LPN license. With the support of WIOA, Kimberly recently graduated and received her LPN license. She has now accepted full-time employment as an LPN at Camellia Health and Rehab. We are so proud of Kimberly and all of her accomplishments.

Kimberly had this to say about the WIOA program. “While attending Ogeechee Technical College for Nursing, I applied for WIOA to help me financially. The assistance I was given helped me put gas in my car so that I could attend class and clinicals and purchase books. I just want to say thank you to Job Training Unlimited and the WIOA program for helping me.”
