🤝 Connecting with community partners means connecting more people with opportunities!

Members of our KANSASWORKS Emporia team visited with Joshua Tree Wellness Center LLC today to share information about Workforce Services and programs designed to support skills development, training pathways, career exploration, and long-term career success.

As part of the conversation, attendees also got a demonstration of the new Resume Review tool available through www.KANSASWORKS.com, giving them another resource to help strengthen their job search.

📚 Celebrating Adult Education & Family Literacy Week!

We’re proud to partner with Adult Education providers in our communities to help connect learners with career services, training, and opportunities for their next steps.

Thank you to our incredible Adult Education partners for all you do! 🤝

📚 Celebrating Adult Education & Family Literacy Week!

Every September, Adult Education & Family Literacy Week shines a light on the importance of learning at every stage of life - and the educators and community partners who help make those opportunities possible.

Adult Education is about so much more than earning a credential or strengthening a skill. It can help adults build literacy and numeracy skills, develop digital confidence, prepare for further education or training, and take meaningful steps toward their career goals.

That makes Adult Education an important part of Workforce Development. When people have access to the education and foundational skills they need to move forward, they are better positioned to pursue training, enter the workforce, advance in their careers, and contribute to the strength of their communities.

At Kansas WorkforceONE, we are incredibly grateful for our Adult Education Center partners across our 96-county service area. Your dedication, expertise, encouragement, and commitment to helping Kansans learn and grow make a lasting difference - and we are proud to work alongside you to connect education with opportunity. ❤️

Thank you for everything you do to help Kansans build brighter futures, one learner at a time!
