ADDING
UP THE FACTS.
Attracting and retaining a qualified workforce is one
of the biggest challenges facing business.
Our population is aging, and baby
boomers are retiring at a
staggering rate.
We are experiencing very low
unemployment rates.
No major metro areas in the country
would have grown without immigrants
between 1970 and 2013.
79% of immigrants are of working age.
The need for a plan to successfully
integrate immigrants into the
workforce and the overall
economy.
The reality is, many communities across the country have
already put the facts together and are, in some cases, years
into a plan for their communities to welcome, attract, keep,
employ and support the immigrant population. These are
the communities we will be competing against to attract
the best and brightest talent to Lancaster County.

This article highlights and supports the
work that's being done in the community
to satisfy the Community & Culture and
Economic Engine dimensions of our
Prosperity Indicators.

ServSafe, Citizenship and
French Macarons
In French culture, cooking
is an art form that feeds
the soul as well as the
body and nourishes
family and community
- and the results are
delicious! But imagine
moving from France to
the United States and
trying to create a culinary
masterpiece from your
native country, only to
discover that you don't even know how to measure the
ingredients, anymore, because you're used to the metric
system! Or realizing that the standards for something as
simple as how long you wash your hands before handling
food are entirely different than what you're used to.
That was the reality that Sylvie Bonin faced when she
immigrated to the United States from France in 2008. For
Bonin, French cooking is both her job and her passion.
Through her business, Sylvie's Recipes in Lancaster, she
provides French cooking classes for individuals and groups,
creating incredible meals and desserts from Coq au Vin to
Scallop Mousseline Wrapped in Fish to French Macarons
