The West Central Works team is dedicated to helping workers and businesses succeed. Our job is to support you, and we do it well. If you have a problem - we have a solution.
Did you know that West Central Works has the funds to pay for training, subsidize salaries and pay for workforce relocations? We can subsidize the cost of things that prevent people from fully participating in the workforce - like a lack of daycare or home internet. We also help students to find and prepare for engaging careers.
We know that working with a government partner can seem complicated. That’s why we’re offering to listen to your (or your business’s needs) and come up with recommended solutions. If you have a challenge you need help solving, contact us. We will find the solution, present it to you and complete the paperwork necessary to make it happen. It’s that easy.
Counties Served: Barron, Chippewa, Clark, Dunn, Eau Claire, Pepin, Pierce, Polk, & St. Croix
We offer solutions in real time - exactly when you need them. West Central Works has the expertise, time and money to help your business solve its workforce challenges. We will come to you, listen to your needs, offer solutions and make it easy to get started - no red tape involved.
Not selected by an employer because of a lack of training? Forced to quit your current job because of a disability, lack of childcare, or housing? West Central Works can help. We are the local hub for worker support and have access to federal grant funds that you can utilize.
Explore careers. Discover what you’re passionate about and what steps you’ll need to take to be hireable after graduation. Our team is here to guide you and connect you with employers. We can also subsidize your training and education.
