Program Manager: Michele Kouadio
The objective of the Federal Women’s Program (FWP) is to enhance women’s
awareness of career advancements and opportunities into leadership and executive
positions. We do this by assisting in the development of a networking system
between managers, supervisors and employees to identify and eliminate barriers
to the hiring and advancement of female employees. Also, we conduct outreach
with colleges and universities, and other minority serving organizations to
attract women with an interest in agriculture and international employment. The
aim of these activities is to promote current FAS employees, inform interns of
employment opportunities and identify candidates for student employment and
career positions.
