This report serves as an addendum to the Workforce Development Disparities Reduction Framework elaborated by the Hennepin County Department of Workforce Development. The purpose of this report is to provide labor market guidance to Hennepin County’s workforce development initiatives. This may include informing grant applications the County may submit, or possible priorities for use of available workforce funds. Although not comprehensive, this report aims to offer a snapshot of the current workforce landscape county-wide and the targeted local opportunities within a 14-zip code corridor extending west and north of downtown Minneapolis.
