On Sunday, June 26, 2022, Employ Milwaukee, Inc., hosted a special “get to know you,” session for their new President and CEO Chytania Brown at The Lily Pad Gallery, 215 N. Broadway. Chytania Brown is no novice to workforce development with more than two decades of experience at the local, state, and national levels. She is considered an expert in this space and is sought after to be part of panels and work groups to share her knowledge and experience. The meet-and-greet allowed community leaders, professionals and those who simply wanted to get to know her the opportunity to do so. This event was a belated welcome to Ms. Brown as she took the helm as President and CEO in March of 2020, the day everything shut down due to the pandemic. However, in just two years’ time she has taken Employ Milwaukee to tremendous growth with funding as well as new and innovative programs such as Community Resource Navigator, Earn and Learn Camp Rise, expansion of reentry programming and the opening of three satellite sites and other career pathways to training and upskilling to better employment.
