AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval of the appointment of Michelle Maxwell to the
CareerSource South Florida Board of Directors.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
CareerSource South Florida is responsible for initiating state and
federally funded workforce development programs in Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties. They
assist employers and job seekers with employment services, labor market information, and provide
training for economically disadvantaged adults, youth, dislocated workers, individuals in transition
from welfare to work, and refugees.
Michelle S. Maxwell is an attorney and Inspector for the Internal Affairs Division of the Monroe
County Sheriff's Office. After Ms. Maxwell was appointed to the Florida Keys community College
Board of Trustees by Governor Rick Scott in 2015, she made it her mission to combat inmate
recidivism through education by partnering MCSO's Inmate Services program with the educational
resources of FKCC.
After recently organizing and completing a small but successful collaboration between MCSO,
FKCC and CareerSource South Florida, Ms. Maxwell witnessed how instrumental CareerSource was
in working with the business community to secure employment for the program graduates.
Ms. Maxwell is a graduate of the West Virginia University School of Law, received her Master's
degree in International Relations from Georgetown University and her bachelor of arts from
Shepherd University in West Virginia.
