We're making big strides to create a sustainable future for Cincinnati, including our focus on green jobs! One of our goals to support this work is to train 4,000 people in Cincinnati to take on green economy jobs by 2028. So what are green jobs? They are positions in businesses that produce goods or provide services that benefit the environment, conserve natural resources, or make production processes more environmentally friendly or use fewer natural resources.

In recognition of Juneteenth, the City of Cincinnati’s Office of Human Relations (OHR) is collaborating with community advocate and Black Is Excellence Founder, Kai Stoudemire- Williams and Fifth Third Bank on the fifth annual citywide marketing campaign, Black Is Excellence (BIE). The campaign celebrates the numerous contributions to the city of 15 of Cincinnati’s finest. The honorees will be featured on banners that will be on display downtown and in surrounding areas beginning June 1 through July 1, 2024. This visual campaign aims to acknowledge and promote diversity, inclusion and representation, and to celebrate the achievements of local Black/African Americans. It’s also a way to ensure that Black/African Americans see themselves represented truthfully and accurately in print and digital media. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/gPrv2J9s
