WIOA — Workforce Innovation & Opportunity Act

WIOA provides a customer-focused workforce development system that helps job seekers access the tools and services they need to manage their careers, and helps employers find skilled workers — with the goal of increasing employment, job retention, earnings, and occupational-skill attainment. In Meigs County, WIOA services are provided through the OhioMeansJobs® Resource Room.

WIOA employment and training services target:

• Adults — eligible to work in the United States, age 18 or older, and (if applicable) registered for Selective Service.
• Dislocated workers — individuals who have lost their job through no fault of their own.
• Youth — low-income individuals ages 16–24 who face barriers such as being basic-skills deficient, homeless, a school dropout, an ex-offender, a runaway, a foster child, or pregnant/parenting.
