Workforce systems should help people access jobs that offer stability, dignity, opportunity, and a real path to economic mobility while helping employers build the talent they need to grow.

MDC brings partners across sectors together to strengthen workforce systems that connect education, training, support services, and employment. Through research, cross-sector partnership, and place-based strategy, we help communities and employers build pathways to quality jobs that improve worker outcomes and support stronger local economies.
