On January 5, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) released a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to provide grants for state and local working groups to implement the Highway Construction Workforce Partnership (HCWP). DOTs are the only groups who can apply; however, the NOFO encourages industry partnership. Applications are due to FHWA by February 22, 2021. Prior to applying for the grant, please visit the HCWP website and review the playbook which will provide you with information about how to organize and implement an HCWP in your state. If you have questions, please contact Ashley Jackson.
