New York workforce grant FAQ
Who funds workforce programs in New York?
In New York, federal workforce dollars flow from the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration to the state workforce agency, which administers WIOA Title I formula programs and sub-grants them to local workforce development boards. Competitive federal grants (including Registered Apprenticeship), state appropriations, and private and community foundations add to the pool. FindGrants surfaces 4 open workforce grants you can apply to in New York and nationally right now.
What can New York workforce grants fund?
Eligible uses include occupational and skills training, instructor and case-manager staffing, curriculum and equipment, apprenticeship expansion and earn-and-learn costs, supportive services for participants, employer engagement, and reentry and transitional-jobs programming. WIOA Title I funds adult, dislocated-worker, and youth services. Each program sets its own allowable costs.
