University Honors LOHP-Community Partnership
UC
Berkeley has honored LOHP for its health and safety training partnership
with an Oakland community organization.
In
September, 2002, Berkeley Chancellor Robert Berdahl and his wife
hosted an event at University House to celebrate the achievements
of 14 University-community partnerships, including LOHP's work
with the Cypress Mandela/ Women in Skilled Trades (WIST) Pre-Apprenticeship
Program. The program provides Oakland residents with training
and employment opportunities in construction and repair work resulting
from the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.
Over
the past four years, LOHP has provided WIST with training in areas
such as chemical hazards, construction site safety, ergonomics,
environmental justice, and hazardous waste.
UC
Berkeley collaborates with community groups on programs and activities
that promote a variety of worthy goals, from job training and
youth employment to recreation, civic engagement, and economic
development.
