It may seem tangential, but it's not. Recently, the US Dept of Labor (DOL) announced a funding opportunity under the America's Promise initiative for competitive grants to organizations that create or expand regional partnerships between employers, economic development interests, workforce development programs, educational institutions, et al., to foster the creation of effective job creation "pipelines" in their region.
A total of $100 million is available. DOL anticipates awarding grants of between $1 million and $6 million. For more information, visit the Employment and Training Administration website, or go to www.grants.gov to make your application. The deadline for applications is August 26, 2016.
