Buncombe County Schools Cut Her Job, Can Someone Help Cecelia?

We are asking the community to help this local woman. Her job with Buncombe County Schools is being cut, and she needs a job to stay in the country.

Please allow me to introduce a friend of mine, Cecelia Flores. Cecelia has been my Spanish tutor, for about six months. Cecelia is currently employed by the Buncombe County School System, as an ESL (English as a second language) instructor and also teaches Spanish to the teachers, to enable them to better communicate with their Hispanic students. Unfortunately, due to funding cutbacks, Cecelia's position with the school system is being eliminated at the end of the year, and Cecelia is looking to continue her employment in the area.

Cecelia has been working in the United States for six years, and if she maintains employment for another three years, she will be eligible for permanent residency (Green Card). If however, she is unable to find employment and there is a gap in her work record, then she looses the amount of time she has accrued, and has to start the process over. Cecelia very much wants to stay in the United States, and more specifically the greater Asheville area. She is however, willing to relocate.

There are some requirements, to satisfy the government regulations. I have attached those. If you or someone you know has a position available for someone with a fluency in English and Spanish, please let me know, or contact Cecelia directly (fosfforito@hotmail.com). If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact me, and I appreciate you taking the time to read this. This post taken from http://www.ashvegas.squarespace.com/

Please advise her to seek employment in the neighboring McDowell County School System!!! There are schools as close as Marion (only 45 mins from Asheville) that are in need of a professional like her!...I know because, they offered ME the job TWICE.
