Our work
WestEd’s Center for Economic Mobility partners with education and workforce systems to remove systemic barriers by providing relevant information, helping make that information meaningful, and supporting systems change. We focus on strengthening linkages between K–12, adult education, postsecondary, workforce development, and employers to foster access to postsecondary education, job training, and credentials that translate to successful careers with income stability and meaningful growth.
