  • Date: 10/11/2023

n an effort to remove obstacles and offer another branch of support in target areas, Port City United is connecting adults to higher education.

PCU — a New Hanover County department that launched in April 2022 to curb violence — started a Connected to Education, Employment and Entrepreneurship Program to help individuals register for and complete one of 132 trades and training programs at Cape Fear Community College at no cost. It’s one of multiple initiatives PCU oversees, including placing community resource officers to assist in high-risk schools and opening a 24/7 call center to connect individuals with resources, such as food, housing, utility payments, transportation and more.
