GRuB's Approach to Career Pathways
Our Career Pathways program is made possible through our partnership with PacMtn and funded through Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), a contract through the Department of Labor. Services are available upon eligibility and until funds are exhausted.
This program is brought to you in partnership with WorkSource, an equal opportunity employer/program. Auxiliary aids and services are available upon request to individuals with disabilities. Washington Relay Service: 711. For WorkSource PacMtn's USDOL grant funding details, visit tinyurl.com/workdevwa.
