On January 8, 2018, the Human Services Agency (HSA) conducted a request for proposals (RFP) to identify a provider for employment and educational support services and the Central Labor Council Partnership (CLCP) was one of three providers selected. HSA selected CLCP because of their experience and success in providing these services throughout the Bay Area. CLCP specializes in employment and training programs. These programs include: participant recruitment, career & aptitude assessment, training, program analysis, workshop instruction, career counseling, and job placement and retention.
