The U.S. Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration awarded a $499,890 Project Grant under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Dislocated Worker National Reserve Demonstration Grants program (CFDA 17.280) to the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation. This grant will fund both short-term capacity-building planning efforts as well as longer-term implementation projects to expand job quality and availability of good jobs, particularly for the benefit of historically marginalized populations, in the care, climate resiliency, and hospitality sectors. The grant projects will be centered on the needs of workers and will involve industry-led, worker-centered sector strategies built through labor-management partnerships. The Foundation will serve as an intermediary, utilizing existing sector partnerships to directly impact job quality through training models and workforce services that promote equity and worker voice.
