National Fund For Workforce Solutions

Equip workers for success:workers succeed in a well-designed job at an organization where they are valued. From training, upskilling, and apprenticeship to worker engagement, satisfaction, and well-being, we promote the full range of skills development and supports that enable workers to thrive. We recognize the humanity of workers and advance practices and workplace cultures that allow workers to show up as their full selves.

Change systems:solving workforce problems requires seeing the whole picture, in all of its complexity. It means making connections among organizations, policies, and mindsets. Systems thinking helps identify the right thing to work on--to address what is preventing a problem from being solved. Systems change strategies go beyond symptoms and seek to treat causes, examining the underlying conditions of power and relationships that are driving events. Such strategies can be a critical step to help communities systematically address racial disparities.
