In Their Own Words . . . Ernest Jones
Abstract
Ernest “Ernie” Jones is not a native Philadelphian, even though most cannot remember a time when Ernie was not part of the city’s core group of leaders. Ernie spent the first part of his childhood in Georgia, but moved to Philadelphia when he was 10 years old, making him an adopted son of the city. Ernie attended Philadelphia School District schools and ultimately graduated from Temple Law School. During his broad-reaching career, Ernie has served as an Assistant District Attorney, General Counsel at Temple Law School, Executive Director at Community Legal Services, President of the Greater Philadelphia Urban Affairs Coalition, and President and CEO of the Philadelphia Workforce Development Corporation. In December Ernie Jones stepped down as both President and CEO of the Philadelphia Workforce Development Corporation. He is working on a reduced schedule with Mark Edwards as he assumes his new role a President and CEO of PWDC.
