Grant Overview
Puerto Rico's disaster recovery efforts require a robust workforce to support infrastructure resilience, community development, and economic revitalization. With a significant shortage of skilled workers in key industries, the territory faces significant workforce capacity gaps. Workforce Challenges in Puerto Rico? The territory's workforce is disproportionately affected by the lingering effects of Hurricane Maria, with many workers still displaced or underemployed. Local businesses and organizations are working to address this issue, but face significant challenges in terms of training and capacity building. How Funding Supports Puerto Rico's Workforce? This grant program provides critical funding to support workforce development initiatives in Puerto Rico. By supporting projects that prioritize workforce capacity building, the grant program helps to address the significant workforce challenges faced by the territory. Puerto Rico's Workforce Landscape? The territory's workforce is characterized by a strong presence of construction and manufacturing industries, with a significant need for skilled workers in these sectors. Unlike neighboring Caribbean islands, Puerto Rico's US territory status provides access to federal funding streams that can be leveraged to support workforce development efforts. Funding Priorities in Puerto Rico? The grant program prioritizes projects that demonstrate a clear understanding of Puerto Rico's workforce challenges and propose innovative solutions to address these issues.
