PADD Participates in P-16 Retreat

Jerrod Haberman and Chuck Karpf of PADD participated in the P-16 retreat lat Friday evening and Saturday at the HARMS Center in Scottsbluff.

The Panhandle P-16 Leadership team met to develop a mission statement and chart the course of the P-16 initiative in the Panhandle.

The purpose of Panhandle P-16 is to educate the 11 counties of the Panhandle about the need for and benefits of collaboration. Leveraging technology, we will provide information, data, examples of best practices and successes. In order to build a shared understanding of the urgency of challenges and sites for opportunities in the panhandle, we will be committed to transparency of our processes and inclusive of the public. The primary goal of Panhandle P-16 is to keep well-educated and skilled people in the Panhandle.

PADD is looking forward to building this colloborative effort in the region.
