Your State’s Governing Bodies

10/6/2021

0 Comments

 
Your State’s Governing Bodies-  in Connecticut, we have our Governor’s Office and Governors Workforce Council, the Office of Workforce Strategy, the Department of Labor and Apprenticeship Division, the Connecticut Department of Public Health
In March of 2020, COVID was on our doorstep which accelerated dollars that would become available from the Federal government to the State of Connecticut. The Federal government under the CARES Act were provided to not only support the provision of health care and education but support all those businesses and individuals impacted by COVID. 
Connecticut was in receipt of $1.1 billion.  In addition to these relief funds through the CARES Act, new dollars are being earmarked for Connecticut through the American Rescue Plan Act- called ARPA. Of the ARPA monies received, $70 million is earmarked for workforce development across all sectors.
Summary & CLOSING:
  • With so MANY reports, studies, executive briefings, etc.; it is important to cull the information and develop a workforce development document for YOUR State.  More importantly, create a document that can be UNDERSTOOD by a non-nurse and/or non-healthcare professional as these are the individuals that will be reading and vetting your proposal for possible funding.
  • Lastly, reach out and schedule a meeting with your Development, Advancement of Philanthropic Offices to identify a grant writer who can research the resources and websites that I shared, engage your network or multi-sector partners that I highlighted and then connect with the WiBS or State Governing bodies to learn more about the ARPA dollars and other low hanging fruit funding opportunities to support your work!
  • NURSES are the Solution… now its our job to let everyone else know that too!
