LANSING – The Michigan Department of Labor & Economic Opportunity’s (LEO) Community & Worker Economic Transition Office was awarded $750,000 from the Families & Workers Fund as a winner of the Powering Climate and Infrastructure Careers Challenge.

The funds will help ensure Michigan has the workforce needed to leverage and implement over $10B in federal clean energy and infrastructure investments and create good jobs for Michiganders impacted by economic transitions.

“Receiving this $750,000 award is a significant step forward for Michigan workers as we look to lead the nation in using federal investments to create good jobs. Our Community & Worker Economic Transition Office is dedicated to making sure Michigan’s workers, communities, and businesses benefit from the clean energy future,” said Jonathan Smith, LEO’s Senior Chief Deputy Director. “This funding will support our efforts to ensure the jobs created in the energy and infrastructure sectors provide good wages, benefits, and economic stability for our residents.”

Smith joins MITechTV to explain what this grant means for Michigan’s efforts to build a clean energy economy. You also can check out clean energy jobs at www.mitalent.org.
