"Second Chance Partners is playing an important and direct role in filling the talent pipeline with students who are prepared and capable."
- COSBE Director Mary Isbister - President/Owner, GenMet
SCP gives disengaged students who are at risk of not graduating from high school an educational alternative. Its program ties high school curriculum to real world applications by bringing these students into area manufacturing companies to learn and work.
Stepping up to the plate, COSBE launched a campaign in April 2012 to raise $75,000, money that would help fund the one-time, start-up costs associated with opening a new SCP education center at member firm Lakeside Manufacturing in West Milwaukee. With the tremendous generosity and support of COSBE’s Board of Directors and Executive Roundtable members, and a strong collaboration with the West Allis/West Milwaukee Chamber of Commerce, the goal was met and the education center is now fully operational.
COSBE members now have opportunities to become directly involved in the SCP program by providing a tour of their facility, or by presenting 20-30 minute mini-lessons or curricular units to the classroom.
