Open for Public Comment
The Workforce Connection, Inc. (TWC) 2024-2028 Regional and Local Plan consists of regional and local plan components. The plan was developed through a robust collaboration with business, economic development, education and workforce development stakeholders, and will align efforts across the Northern Stateline Economic Development Region which includes Boone, Winnebago, Stephenson and Ogle counties. In addition to the regional plan component, TWC developed a four-year local action plan to direct strategies and investments in Boone, Stephenson and Winnebago counties, which makes up its local workforce area. The Regional and Local Plan meets a requirement of the Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA), which funds workforce development initiatives and aligns efforts with the State Unified Plan.
The 2024-2028 Regional and Local Plan has been submitted to the Governor’s office for review and approval. Once approved by the State of Illinois, the Regional and Local Plan will be effective July 1, 2024.
