NYCETC Secures Federal Workforce Funding

Recently, NYCETC was selected to receive $125,000 in Federal Community Project Funding, secured by Senator Chuck Schumer and awarded by the U.S. Department of Labor.

Funded under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), this investment will support workforce training and strengthen our ability to connect New Yorkers to quality jobs while helping employers meet demand.

This is exactly the kind of targeted federal investment our sector needs—and a clear signal that workforce development is core economic infrastructure. We’re grateful for the support and the opportunity to build durable pathways to sustainable employment, particularly for NYCHA residents and New Yorkers who have been left out of the labor market, while strengthening local talent pipelines and expanding access to opportunity across the city.

Thank you, Senator Schumer written in blue cursive alongside a headshot of Senator Schumer with the N.Y.C.E.T.C logo.
