Project Grant
Overview
Grant Description
New York City's Human Resources Administration (HRA) will support workforce development efforts in the local building and construction industry, as well as its transportation, distribution, and logistics industry. These two industries are critical to supporting New York City's local economy and supply chain.
The NYC Mayor's Office of Workforce Development will serve as the backbone organization to the Building and Construction Sectoral Partnership. Meanwhile, the Consortium for Worker Education, which is the workforce development arm of the New York City Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO, will serve as the backbone organization for the Transportation, Distribution, and Logistics Sectoral Partnership. Both organizations aim to bridge the gap between employers in these industries seeking a diverse workforce and individuals reliant on local public assistance systems.
With a focus on clients served through cash assistance, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and NYC Housing Authority's public housing program, HRA will support recruitment and training efforts designed to place New Yorkers into good-paying union jobs in these two sectors. HRA's partners include six local unions and the City University of New York system.
The project will also leverage the NYC Project Labor Agreement (PLA) to place low-income New Yorkers into union apprenticeships for construction. This ensures that union apprentices are prioritized for hire on PLA-covered city capital contracts.
