FOCUS
Our focus is on inner-city development and support of other disadvantaged communities and individuals. We support the concept of taking disadvantaged high school and college students and providing on-the-job training and development so that they can be placed with other businesses or start their own businesses with additional help from PURA. We believe that the Empowerment Zone concept is one of the programs that we embrace to help cleanup decaying inner-city areas by converting such areas to newer more prosperous business and dwelling places.
We also participate with those who want to help the cause of advancing the economic development of the disadvantaged by providing PURA with funding for specific educational programs. Such programs can be for training inner-city kids and other disadvantaged individuals to install inside, aerial, underground and other types of communication cable, to learn to become software specialists, to learn how to develop databases, to learn to manage housing projects, or to perform any of a number of other programs. The provision is that PURA will train and develop the skills to perform in a particular area and the company or agency desiring those skills will pay for the training and hire the pupils after they are trained.
We believe our focus in such areas as innovative technologies, energy efficient systems, telecommunication programs, information technology programs, disposal systems, recycling programs, housing programs, educational programs, and health related programs provide our pupils with the type of backgrounds that will enable them to get and retain employment for a life time. Our training is focused not only on technology but also on the mental and physical aspects of the individuals' well being and their ability to be successful.
