It is hard to believe that just six months ago, we set out on a mission to inspire, and build capacity for interconnected workforce pipelines across the 3S Workforce™. Today, we are celebrating a major milestone: half a year of WIN-NextGen™. This journey has been defined by one thing above all else: connection. From the very beginning, our goal was to bridge the gap between NextGens and industry leaders, and seeing this community grow has

This month has left me both inspired and hopeful. I had the joy of leading a hands-on STEM learning session with Head Start youngsters with my Prince George's - MD The Links, Incorporated committee co-chairs, focused on the “E” in STEM - Engineering.

As we approach the end of the year, I’ve been reflecting on the incredible growth of our community and the many ways we are working together to prepare the next generation for success. This month, in particular, has been especially busy with meaningful opportunities to share our mission and to witness the talent, curiosity, and determination of our youth firsthand.

November's theme has been exploring the 3S Workforce™ in its entirety: Supply Chain, Skilled Trades, and STEM. As the month wrapped up, I found myself in the ultimate epicenter where these three forces spectacularly converge: the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Business Summit.

October's theme was the vital importance of supply chain. It truly is everywhere, not only shaping our careers but defining the movement of the entire world! Supply chain isn't just about moving boxes; it's about moving the world forward using technology, innovation, and bold new ideas to connect everything we use and value.

September has been an energizing month for WIN-NextGen™ as we continue to build momentum following our public launch! Together, we are proving that when we equip NextGens with the skills, connections, and confidence to thrive, the future of the 3S Workforce™—STEM, Supply Chain, and Skilled Trades—becomes even brighter.

Welcome to the inaugural edition of the WIN-NextGen™ Newsletter! Thank you for being part of this journey—your support fuels our impact and shapes the future.
