[ST. PAUL, MN] – Governor Tim Walz today announced over $12 million for job skills training, work readiness, internships, work experience, on-the-job training, and job placement for Minnesotans. This is the funding awarded under the Targeted Populations Workforce Competitive Grant Program, and will allow organizations to serve an estimated 2,100 Minnesotans.

“Anyone who has submitted a job application knows the difficulty and frustration that can come with finding work,” said Governor Walz. “For underserved communities, those challenges are compounded. Lack of opportunities for continued education, training, and work experience can hurt job prospects. These grants directly address those disparities to help Minnesotans find fulfilling careers and earn sustaining wages while ensuring businesses fill open positions with skilled workers – it’s a win for workers, businesses, and the economy.”
