Participants will learn how The Workforce Alliance (TWA), a national coalition focused on workforce development policy, determines and implements its national policy advocacy strategy. Jobs for the Future is hosting this webinar as part of a series to assist NFWS collaboratives in learning about models for developing and implementing a policy agenda.
In summer 2008, NFWS funded three regional funding collaboratives to advocate for and implement new mechanisms for funding workforce partnerships. The Bay Area Workforce Funders Collaborative and the New York City Workforce Innovation Fund worked to implement a Food Stamp Employment and Training fund model, and the Pennsylvania Fund for Workforce Solutions worked to implement a state-level fund financed through assessments on employers linked to the UI system.
