Nikki Porcher is traveling to Lincolnton for Hope for Rural Georgia, a community gathering focused on people power, authentic conversation, and amplifying rural voices across the state.

Every county counts in Georgia. As candidate for Georgia Labor Commissioner, Nikki is showing up to hear directly from Lincoln County, Wilkes County, and Appling County residents, address their concerns, and present a clear vision for a Department of Labor that delivers resources and economic opportunity to rural communities.

Nikki will highlight critical priorities for working families in Lincoln, Wilkes, and Appling counties including:

- Localized Workforce Training: Broadening access to technical education, trade programs, and local career pathways so young people can build thriving careers in their home counties.

- Support for Rural Small Businesses: Partnering with entrepreneurs in Lincoln, Wilkes, and Appling counties to strengthen main street economies.

- Removing Barriers to Employment: Increasing access to affordable childcare and responsive state services for rural families.

Neighbors and local community members, join the discussion and bring your questions.

Admission: Free and open to the public.
