Please Touch Museum

Log Number: LG-45-11-0054-11

Please Touch Museum and its partner, the Philadelphia Zoo, are planning to develop and pilot a staff training and retention program. The project is an effort to address the desire of several Philadelphia non-profits to hire staff from their neighborhoods in order to combat underemployment and unemployment in their community. It is intended to help improve the local economy, fill available entry-level positions and, most importantly, retain employees from the neighborhood once they’ve been placed in these positions.
