Show Notes

There are many ways in which women contribute to society – they are leaders in STEM, arts, and culture. We strive towards equality and nurture change. NACCE closes Women's History Month and the CTCC Innovation in the Energy Workforce webinar series with a special guest. Join Dr. Rebecca Corbin as she connects with Christy L. Jackiewicz, an advocate for change at the Department of Energy (DOE).

As Chief of the Minority Educational Institution Division in DOE’s Office of Economic Impact and Diversity, Christy engages with program offices, laboratories, and field sites to establish internships, research opportunities, grants, and cooperative agreements with Minority Serving Institutions that greatly contribute to a diverse pipeline of STEM and energy leaders for the future of the American workforce.

Tune in to learn what led Christy to this work at the DOE and the ways this engagement expands opportunities for all people and reduces the hardships of the most vulnerable.
