Local Workforce Development Areas (LWDAs)
LWDAs are area clusters of counties whose labor market and other employment-related factors are similar. This suggests each location provides labor force development and profession services based upon local requirements. LWDAs are affiliate, or partners who help operate and administer programs and services as directed from the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) at all of the regional job centers throughout the state.
