SCPa Works envisions a region where opportunity for prosperity and growth exist for all. Our mission is to unlock the human talent that drives the development of businesses and individuals. We accomplish this by building a productive network of business, economic development, and community partners to create a demand driven opportunity engine for our region; connecting youth and adults to a value chain stretching from education to job opportunities and beyond; integrating education, training programs, and community partners with the needs of industry and our regional economy; and investing in and evaluating what works as entrusted stewards of public resources. SCPa Works is led by the private sector through coordinated partnerships providing training, education and employment opportunities for all residents within eight counties in our south central region.
