The Workforce Investment Agency, the National Grant Emergency Office, and the Office of the Governor recently presented a plaque of appreciation to Guam’s Agency for Human Resources Development and Guam Gov. Felix P. Camacho for helping in applying for a grant that was later awarded the CNMI.
WIA said the plaque was intended to show the CNMI’s gratitude to the Guam agency’s generosity in assisting the people of the CNMI through a working collaboration in the application of a National Emergency Grant that was awarded the CNMI by the U.S. Department Of Labor.
Alfredo O. Antolin Jr., the independent monitoring unit administrator of the CNMI NEG project from AHRD, was on hand to receive the plaque of appreciation from the representative of the CNMI Office of the Governor.
The memorandum of understanding between Guam’s Camacho and Gov. Juan N. Babauta was to implement the NEG project for the CNMI and Guam, though AHRD will assist in the monitoring of the federal grant.
WIA said the NEG project provided economic restoration and provided workforce for the recovery and mitigation efforts caused by Typhoon Chaba.
“It is working relationship and collaboration efforts of both Guam and the CNMI that made the grant possible from the U.S. Department of Labor,” WIA said.
