Project Overview

The Westside Recovery Plan (WRP) will address the urgent housing, health, economic, and educational needs of individuals, households, and businesses most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the Westside Promise Neighborhood (WPN) and surrounding areas. Through the provision of direct services, programs, and coordinated activities in the form of housing assistance, health education, early learning and tutoring programs, job training and placement, the WWRP will facilitate community recovery in the WPN and build community capacity to sustain a more equitable and just quality of life for its residents. The Westside Workforce Recovery Plan seeks to serve 800 individuals and families in the WPN who have been negatively and disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Fiscal recovery funds will be used to accomplish the following project goals by priority:

1. Provide workforce readiness services, employment training and placement for job seekers dislocated because of COVID-19

2. Provide wraparound services that will equip individuals to be prepared for the job market.
