Promote workforce training and development programs that help businesses become more resilient to climate change and disasters and accelerate the creation of green jobs in fields such as brownfield cleanup and redevelopment, urban agriculture, installation and maintenance of green energy and technologies, energy efficiency weatherization and retrofitting, planting and maintenance of urban forestry and parks, and habitat restoration. PED is working with Human Resources and using tribal funds to conduct this strategy on an ongoing basis. Recent accomplishments include creating jobs with the local Urban Corps, River Partners, and other partners on invasive plant management and habitat restoration.
