About Revolution Workshop
Revolution Workshop, a Chicago-based non-profit workforce development organization, receives federal grants as a prime recipient from the Department of Labor and operates primarily as a sub-recipient on apprenticeship and employment-training grants flowing through state workforce agencies. The organization holds no federal contracts and does not appear on procurement vehicles; its federal footprint is grant-funded only.
Revolution Workshop's core capability centers on sector-specific workforce training and career-pathway development for unemployed, underemployed, and incumbent workers. As a prime recipient, the organization holds a $2 million, five-year H-1B Job Training Grants award (CFDA 17.268) from the Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration, with a performance period running October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2029. This grant funds development and scaling of worker-centered sector strategy training in advanced manufacturing, information technology, professional services, and critical infrastructure. A second prime grant, awarded December 1, 2023 under the Community Project Funding / Congressionally Directed Spending program (CFDA 17.289), carried $1 million in Department of Labor funding for a two-year employment and workforce training initiative across Illinois, completing November 30, 2025.
As a sub-recipient, Revolution Workshop participates in apprenticeship expansion and construction-trades training grants flowing from the Illinois Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity and the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration. Recent sub-awards (dated January and February 2026) focus on capacity building for construction training programs at two Revolution Workshop training centers in South Side's West Roseland and West Side Garfield Park neighborhoods, with emphasis on serving under-resourced Chicago residents. The organization's training model combines classroom instruction with hands-on woodshop experience.
The Department of Labor accounts for five of seven tracked federal awards (86% of the active portfolio), with a single Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service award rounding out the customer set. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $3.5 million. Activity has accelerated in 2026 (five awards to date) after a slow 2023–2024 period (one award per year). The vendor does not operate under SBA set-aside certifications and does not compete on federal procurement vehicles; its federal footprint is confined to grant-based workforce development funding.
