Breaking Ground: ECT & Summer Youth Employment

In this episode of "We Don't Color On the Dog," host Rick Outzen speaks with Lindsey Cannon, Executive Director of Escambia Children's Trust, about an innovative interlocal agreement with Escambia County. Cannon discusses how the Trust is working to address funding shortfalls in the county's summer youth employment program through a proposed partnership. The conversation explores how this collaboration could potentially help an additional hundred kids gain valuable work experience while learning about local government operations. They also address the Trust's mission to serve children "Cradle to Career" and fill programming gaps, particularly for middle and high school students.
