Alliance for Workforce Development, Inc (AFWD) announces effective June 1, 2011 a name change for its locally operated One-Stop Centers in Lassen, Modoc, Plumas, and Sierra Counties. The One Stop Centers located in Lassen, Modoc, Plumas, and Sierra counties will each be renamed Business and Career Network.
 
Besides allowing for consistency across the counties, this new name more accurately reflects AFWD’s “Business First” philosophy which promotes the strengthening of businesses in our communities in order to provide employment for job seekers.
 
While the One Stops’ names have changed, Alliance for Workforce Development, Inc. remains the private non-profit operator of these centers.
 
The name Business and Career Network also highlights the strong network of One-Stop and community partner agencies that provide services within each county and through the One-Stops.
 
The One-Stop mission is to serve as a common point of access for job seekers, employers and community members for the purposes of education, training, employment, referral and support services.
 
These Business and Career Networks will continue to provide a single address where partnering agencies, each with their own identity and mission, will provide core services focused on meeting the needs of businesses, job seekers, and community members alike.
 
AFWD and its partner agencies are dedicated to enhancing the quality of life throughout our communities by assisting businesses, organizations, job seekers, and community members with their pathways to success.
 
Alliance for Workforce Development, Inc. (AFWD) is a private not-for-profit organization providing workforce development solutions in Northeastern California for over 24 years.
