Unlocking Opportunities: DOL Announces $44 Million in Job Training & Services Grants for Rural Communities
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) recently announced a substantial $44 million in funding dedicated to the Workforce Opportunity for Rural Communities (WORC) initiative. This program is designed to help workers in Appalachia, the lower Mississippi Delta, and the Northern Border Regions secure good jobs and achieve economic prosperity. The WORC initiative offers grants ranging from $150,000 to $1.5 million, aiming to create pathways to high-quality careers for residents in these rural areas. In this blog post, we'll explore the objectives and benefits of the WORC initiative and discuss how OnCentive can support organizations in their grant application process.
Addressing Economic Distress and Creating Opportunities
The WORC initiative seeks to address persistent economic distress in rural areas by creating opportunities for residents to obtain high-quality careers, helping them remain and thrive in their communities. By aligning with existing economic and workforce development plans, the initiative supports local and regional workforces' employment and training needs through community partnerships.
Administered by the DOL Employment and Training Administration in partnership with the Appalachian Regional Commission, Delta Regional Authority and Northern Border Regional Commission, each WORC grant will fund projects providing career training and supportive services to people in these regions. This project aims to help residents secure quality jobs in stable, high-demand occupations.
