The U.S. Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration awarded a $129,841 Project Grant to the Ute Indian Tribe under the Native American Employment and Training program (CFDA 17.265). The grant supports employment and training activities for American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian individuals to develop their academic, occupational, and literacy skills and make them more competitive in the workforce.
Key activities include providing career services to prepare participants to enter, reenter, or retain unsubsidized employment, as well as follow-up services and training services aligned with the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). The grant is expected to serve unemployed and under-skilled American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian adults with the goal of achieving six key WIOA performance outcomes, such as employment, median earnings, credential attainment, and skill gains.
