SALISBURY, MD – The Tri-County Council for the Lower Eastern Shore of Maryland is pleased to announce Leslie Porter-Cabell as the new Lower Shore Workforce Alliance Director.

Over the span of her 20-year career, Leslie has successfully developed programs that target youth and underrepresented populations, partnered with community institutions to advance education to career pipeline programs, and managed the administration of several major grant-funded projects. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Urban Studies from Boston University and a certificate in Environmental Impact Statements.

Leslie joins the Lower Shore Workforce Alliance at a time when the organization is actively mapping out a diversification of services, including an expanded business services department focused on increased collaboration with private sector employers of the Lower Shore.
