Join the Siemens Foundation’s Senior Director of Workforce Development Programs, Crystal Bridgeman, along with other thought leaders this Wednesday at 12:00pm ET via LinkedIn for Jobs for the Future (JFF) & Indeed’s live discussion on how employers can support the transition to an economy with quality #GreenJobs for all communities.
In this LinkedIn Live session, produced in partnership with Indeed, we’ll hear from employers, apprenticeship sponsors, union leaders, and workforce training providers on opportunities that employers, policymakers, and climate innovators in the public and private sectors can take advantage of, including resources for growing green jobs and supports for the transition to a green economy.? #LinkedInLive #ClimateJobs #GreenJobs

Congratulations to our partners The Families and Workers Fund on the launch of the Benefits Access & Equity Initiative to improve U.S. economic security by supporting access to?public benefits for kids, workers, and families.?
Government programs like unemployment insurance, Medicaid, and SNAP all dramatically reduce poverty and boost outcomes across generations – but $80 billion in public benefits go unused by eligible people each year. That’s why we’re launching the Benefits Access and Equity Initiative, a five-year, $45+ million philanthropic effort to significantly improve access to and delivery of poverty-reducing benefits across the U.S. Through pooled philanthropic investments, we will activate and grow a network of innovative nonprofit, tech, and government agency partners to help deliver $3.5 billion in public benefits to 1.5 million people over the next five years. If you’re a funder working on tech, poverty, children and family issues, hunger and nutrition, economic opportunity, or any related mission, we invite you to join us! https://lnkd.in/g7KZB_sz

Electric vehicles (EVs) are rapidly becoming a part of our everyday lives. Whether it’s the EV in your neighbor’s driveway or the charging stations at the local shopping center, there’s no denying that EVs are the future. According to a 2024 PricewaterhouseCoopers report, EV adoption in the United States is projected to leap from 2% to an impressive 30% by 2030. With this surge in EVs, the need for workers with the right training and credentials to drive EV infrastructure jobs is more critical than ever. ?

This taskforce is composed of state, municipal, federal, regional, industry, labor, education, and non-profit leaders with the goal to help cities and states achieve the full promise of investments in EV charging, and to scale workforce strategies necessary to develop a skilled and ready talent pipeline to build America’s next-generation infrastructure.

To help cities and states achieve the full promise of investments in EV charging, NGA and the National League of Cities partnered to launch the State and Local Collaborative to Support an Inclusive Workforce for the Electric Vehicle Charging Sector. The Collaborative’s work kicked off with a convening in Washington, D.C., that brought together government, industry, postsecondary, and workforce leaders to discuss workforce strategies necessary to develop a skilled and ready talent pipeline to build America’s next-generation infrastructure.
