<\/p>\nThe Central Avenue Business Improvement District has always
\nbeen about putting our district to work. Now, we are now working with a number of
\nlocal and national outreach programs to help put our residents and neighbors to
\nwork. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“We can’t just live in a bubble,” says Anthony Capece,
\nExecutive Director for the Central Avenue Business Improvement District. Capece
\nsays the district board participated in a strategic planning session a year ago,
\nand realized that taking the district to the next level required reaching out
\nthe neighborhoods surrounding the district, helping with community building as
\nwell as employment and job training opportunities. “We’ve been able to creatively
\nmix our mission into that, making it better for our businesses and the
\nsurrounding neighborhoods at the same time,” says Capece. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Headquartered at the Central Business offices at 176 Central,
\nour “On the Job” program works with several partners to train and employ
\nstudents, veterans, and special needs individuals and to secure funding for small
\nbusinesses, which provide 65% of new jobs. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
