The Consortium For Early Learning Services was awarded a $2,000,000 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration under the Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending program (CFDA 17.289). The three-year grant, effective May 1, 2024, supports the organization's workforce development initiatives, which may involve issuing sub-awards to facilitate program delivery. The grant funds a range of employment-related programs, including job training, vocational education, apprenticeships, career services, and community revitalization efforts, with a focus on serving underserved populations and addressing local economic development needs. Additionally, the organization has previously received a Project Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development to support economic development and community projects. As a non-profit entity, the Consortium For Early Learning Services also operates as a sub-grantee for the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) program, working to improve access to quality child care for low-income families.
