Five Action Areas to Increase Access to Opportunity
Launch more sector strategies
for workforce development that
offer a larger menu of pathways into family supporting
careers.
Increase the availability,
awareness, and completion of Adult
Basic Education (ABE) and GED
preparation courses.
Improve the availability of transportation between low-
income neighborhoods and
high-growth job centers.
Eliminate policies, practices, and
institutional cultures that promote and
support structural racism that leads to biases against people of color.
Increase the level of resources available to industry and
workforce development organizations.

§ Completed a Regional Economic Prosperity Strategy
— Strengthen pathways to middle-‐wage jobs
— Grow the economy with a focus on middle-‐wage jobs
— Improve condi*ons for low-‐wage workers
§ Funded 11 pilot projects with $1.08 million in sub-‐grants
Economic mobility and opportuni2es for lower-‐wage workers
This work is a collaboration between regional agencies, Federal government, and consortium of organizations.
Key findings

2010 Share of total workforce
$30 and above 1,196,090 38%
$18 to $30 an hour 850,210 27%
Under $18 an hour 1,126,860 36%
Total 3,173,160

…the majority of the opportuni2es come from replacement jobs, not job growth
Goal A: Improve pathways to the middle
Photo of an appren2ce readiness program in proper use of harnesses.
1. Expand job-focused basic skills training.
2. Establish industry-driven, sector-based regional training partnerships.
3. Improve career navigation systems and support pathways, at the K-12 level and beyond.
Goal B: Grow the economy, with an emphasis on middle-‐wage jobs
4. Focus economic development resources on industries of opportunity, business formation and expansion and policy coordination among jurisdictions.
5. Develop land use plans that support transit-oriented jobs, industrial uses and housing.
6. Rebuild and expand infrastructure in a way that supports economic development and job growth.
7. Manage the region’s transportation as an integrated system that is easy to navigate.
Goal C: Upgrade conditions in existing lower-wage jobs with an emphasis on increasing workers’ economic security.
8. Raise the floor by increasing minimum standards for equal opportunity, working conditions and compensation.
9. Organize and professionalize industries to improve wages, benefits and career ladders.
10. Establish standards to ensure that investment of public dollars is aligned with the goal of economic opportunity.

To achieve economic prosperity, we have to balance pathways to the middle, economic growth and economic security.
