This week, GIS Spotlight focuses on handicapped parking and empowering young job seekers, in addition to revisiting Miss Lassie’s house.

Next, we bring you the newest cohort from the flourishing Passport2Success programme, an initiative that has already fine-tuned the job-seeking skills of scores of young persons. Hear from some young persons about the useful tips and information they received as participants in the programme.
Finally, GIS Spotlight stops at Miss Lassie’s house for repeat viewing of the vision and history behind the restoration of this iconic residence of one of the Cayman Islands’ most famous artists.
