Portland, Oregon: The Green Career Training Project is a coalition of Portland area groups that are working together to provide a holistic approach at workforce development. Over its two year period the grant will provide skill training and culturally specific case management support to disadvantaged individuals to prepare them to enter careers in construction and retrofit; renewable electric power; green manufacturing; and emerging green occupations. Participants will earn certificates and degrees through community colleges, organized labor, and industry-recognized training providers, and will receive employment placement and retention support. Those qualifying for this grant must be 18 or older, legally authorized to work in the United States, registered for the selective service (if male), be unemployed or a veteran, high school dropout, ex-offender, or disadvantaged individual as determined by income guidelines, and be a resident of PUMA 01301, 01302, or 01306 in Portland. Confirm that you qualify by visiting the US Census Website.
