Abstract

The purpose of this study was to produce new information regarding interorganizational collaboratives for job training and economic development. The goal was to collect information on innovative practices, defined as interorganizational arrangements with demonstrated exemplary outcomes. The study focused on identifying innovative job creation practices, including those involving (a) assistance to small business, a key ingredient in job creation and economic development for this country, and (b) benefits to Job Training Partnership Act participants or other low-income, hard-to-employ workers in terms of job placement. The study analytically assesses what works and why, and discusses lessons learned for other local sites wishing to consider similar initiatives.
