Information For Faith-Based and Community Organizations

Local Workforce Investment Boards (Local Boards) and State Workforce Agencies (SWA) together distribute about 85 percent of federal job training dollars. One of CFBCI's top priorities is to encourage these agencies to seek out partnerships with faith-based and community organizations. We also strongly encourage faith-based and community organizations that are seeking assistance to begin by reaching out to their Local Boards and State Workforce Agencies.

The U.S. Department of Labor, in conjunction with the Center for Employment Security Education and Research, has created information kits designed to educate faith-based and community organizations on ways they can partner with their Local Boards to meet the employment and training needs of their communities. The information kits can be downloaded or ordered online below at no cost.
