Why are so few displaced Androscoggin Mill workers utilizing resources?

FRANKLIN JOURNAL • March 24, 2021

The clock is ticking for the 177 Androscoggin Mill workers laid off last year, due to a pulp digester exploding, to enroll in community college programs by July 5 with tuition covered by Pixelle Specialty Solutions’ private fund. Despite these resources, Robyn Raymond, director of Spruce Mountain Adult Education, has seen at most, 40 of the 177 displaced workers. Pixelle is reporting similar numbers.
