Ten Michigan Communities Receive Industry-Transition Support
The state announces $1 million for communities participating in the Community Growth Academy.
Michigan’s Community and Worker Economic Transition Office announced $1 million in Economic Transition Fund grants on September 25. The awards support 10 Michigan communities participating in the Community Growth Academy.
The initiative addresses how communities prepare for industry change. For workers, business owners and local organizations, that broader planning can influence the resources and partnerships available as an area’s economy evolves.
This announcement concerns awards already made. It should not be presented as an open application for individual job seekers or as a guarantee of immediate hiring. Residents should identify whether their community is involved and what local activities are planned.
