Building Equity-Centered Workforce Development Systems

This Toolkit is a comprehensive guide designed to help workforce development organizations recruit, train, and retain underrepresented workforce participants—including multilingual job seekers, people of color, women, and others who have been historically excluded from economic opportunity. It also provides strategies for building strong, equity-driven relationships with workforce development partners.

Toolkit Goals

  • Increase equitable access to good jobs
  • Create inclusive and welcoming training environments
  • Support successful outcomes for diverse job seekers
  • Build sustainable partnerships grounded in equity and accountability
