Community leaders unite to launch innovative business resource center

During a recent government meeting, officials announced the recruitment of four mentor positions aimed at supporting high school students, alongside a full-time managerial role at the Youth Corps. The council urged community members to help disseminate this information, emphasizing the importance of these roles in fostering youth development.

The meeting also featured a presentation on the Business Resource and Innovation Center, led by Jessica Stern, Charles Whitson, and Planning and Zoning Director Chris Larson. The discussion highlighted the collaborative efforts among various local organizations, including Taos County and the Taos Chamber of Commerce, to advance this initiative.

The center's development has been in the works for over two decades, with recent momentum gained through a state economic development grant. The presenters expressed gratitude for the ongoing dialogue and partnerships that have formed over the past eleven months, indicating a strong commitment to overcoming challenges and making the project a reality.

As the project progresses, the team outlined the phases of development and cooperative agreements necessary for its success, signaling a hopeful outlook for the community's long-awaited resource center.
