Grant Overview

The Virgin Islands faces significant disparities in workforce equity, with marginalized populations facing barriers to accessing living-wage jobs. The territory's economy is heavily reliant on tourism, which can create unstable job markets and perpetuate income inequality. To address this, funding is available to pilot initiatives that create pathways to living-wage jobs for marginalized populations. Advancing Workforce Equity in the Virgin Islands requires a nuanced understanding of the territory's labor market and the specific challenges facing its marginalized populations. Who Should Apply in the Virgin Islands? Organizations with experience in workforce development, including non-profit groups, community organizations, and government agencies, are eligible to apply. Applicants must demonstrate a clear understanding of the Virgin Islands' workforce equity challenges and propose projects that address the territory's specific needs. The Virgin Islands' Labor Market highlights the need for targeted solutions. Funding will support initiatives that address systemic barriers, promote inclusive economic development, and create opportunities for marginalized populations to access living-wage jobs. Unlike other US territories, the Virgin Islands' funding application requires a specific focus on addressing the unique workforce equity challenges associated with its tourism-driven economy.
