Our Priorities
-
Racial Equity
Black workers in the Louisville region experience higher unemployment rates and are more likely to be crowded into low-quality, low-wage work. We’re committed to changing this.
-
Career Pathways
There is no one-size-fits-all definition of a good job. We’re focused on connecting people to employment that offers stability and a road to middle-class wages.
-
Preparing for the Future
As our regional workforce ages, it’s crucial that we invest in the next generation of talent and prepare them with the skills employers need.
