The Division of Citywide Workforce Opportunity (CWO) of the NYC Department of Small Business Services (SBS) is responsible for connecting nearly 100,000 New Yorkers each year to good jobs and training opportunities that empower them to lead successful lives. Much of this work is conducted through a network of 18 Workforce1 (WF1) career centers, operated in all five boroughs by workforce development providers under contract with SBS, that provide career services such as resume help, interviewing workshops, and one-on-one career counseling, as well as direct connections to employment.CWO likewise oversees more than a dozen occupational training programs, in such areas as technology, health care, and construction, that are offered in collaboration with higher education institutions and non-profit training providers. At the core of CWO’s mission is reaching and serving jobseekers who have traditionally been underserved and have not had ready access to employment and training opportunities.
To better meet the needs of jobseekers and neighborhoods we serve, CWO recently created the Neighborhood and Community Engagement Team (NACE), overseeing community engagements and Jobs NYC. Jobs NYC is a mayoral initiative to combat unemployment in neighborhoods across NYC where unemployment rates among people of color are high. The initiative currently brings monthly hiring halls to each borough to connect talent to job opportunities and resources.
