- Patrick Brown, Program Coordinator and Instructor at OAI, Inc. / Greencorps Chicago - Patrick will talk about how relationships with employers, combined with progressive city policy, has resulted in phenomenal placement rates for Greencorps Chicago, a program that largely serves individuals with criminal records and multiple barriers to employment.
