Description

Local Solution
(Type of Activity: Community Program Implementation )

Develop ongoing regional coordination between employers, trainers, and workforce boards.

Existing Examples of Progress: Southern California Green Jobs Regional Partnership brought employers and trainers together to coordinate workforce pipelines. They ensured disinvested communities could access jobs and entrepreneurship opportunities. They produced a green jobs report identifying gaps and opportunities in the region. The Veterans Green Jobs Programs (from 2009) was an early pilot program connecting veterans to green jobs opportunities. They helped workforce boards eventually incorporate “green collar jobs” into their offerings.
