Working to Make an Impact

Workforce Solutions Alamo is committed to strengthening our local community by empowering adults and youth to realize their potential through work by providing access to training, career resources, and connections to employers. We also help businesses hire, train, and retain skilled workers, and help families achieve financial independence by connecting them to quality childcare so parents can go to work or school.

Why We Do What We Do

No matter one’s background or circumstance, we meet people where they are by providing dedicated support to help them overcome barriers to attain an education, learn skills, obtain first-time employment, advance or change careers, or successfully transition from military to civilian employment.

We do this because meaningful work provides more than a paycheck. Work provides dignity, purpose, and the promise for a better life and a stronger community. Through strategic partnerships and a drive to lead the development of a world-class workforce, our work today will enable those we serve to thrive and realize this same promise for generations to come.

Jose B.

From evaluating my skills to helping construct an outstanding resume and to getting an interview and landing the position I am in right now, it blows my mind! I would not be where I am today without Workforce Solutions Alamo’s Youth Empowerment Services program and the devoted team members that truly want to see others succeed in life. – Jose B.

Celeste S.

As a Graduate of the Youth Empowerment Services program, Celeste went from helping her mom pay their mortgage working low-wage jobs to training to become a dental assistant. She is appreciative of full-time employment and motivated to continue her education to become a dentist.

I am so grateful for the YES! Program and the opportunity it has provided. I want to make my mom proud and show everyone this program, this money was well spent on the future I now have. – Celeste, YES! Program Participant, Gillespie County
