Every month Coalition Forward brings together employers and service providers. Employers talk about their job openings and service providers ask questions on behalf of the individuals they work with. Meetings are held the third Thursday of each month at McDowell Center (8412 Westport Rd, Louisville, KY 40242) from 9am-10am and can be attended in person or virtually. A meeting link with the agenda is emailed out every Monday before the meeting. To be added to the email list, contact coalition.office@coalitionfwd.com.
