Talking Jobs with Ohio’s Next Governor is funded by The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) through a grant for the American Graduate: Getting to Work initiative. American Graduate is public media’s long-term commitment to help young people succeed in school, career and life by supporting community-based solutions, including national and local reporting, town halls and public forums, like Talking Jobs.
