Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

  • Job placement and career services contracts for Cook County residents
  • Tuition and training-cost administration through large national vendors
  • Sector training in manufacturing, IT, aviation, transportation, healthcare
  • Youth employment programs and alternative-school-to-work pipelines
  • Community college and district-based occupational training partnerships
  • Small awards to community health, doula, and reentry service groups

Typical grant

Median award is $296,357, with the middle half between $123,510 and $683,339. The largest checks go to high-volume administrative and placement contractors handling many participants at once, ISTS at $9.6M, EdAssist at $7.1M, Employment & Employer Services at $5.5M, National Able Network at $4.2M, while community organizations, health clinics, and single-site youth programs land between $20,000 and $400,000. With 389 awards to 246 recipients across four years, most of the money flows to organizations that come back more than once.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

  • Employment & Employer Services
  • Business and Career Services
  • Youth Program
  • Training Institute
  • Workforce

Positioning adjacent work

  • Tie research to their sector clusters: manufacturing, IT, aviation services, transportation, and healthcare occupations already funded.
  • Ask $150,000 to $500,000 unless you can deliver participant volume; multi-million awards go to placement contractors.
  • Emphasize enrolled participants served and placement outcomes in Cook County, not knowledge generation.
  • Partner with a funded community college or provider; Moraine Valley, South Suburban, Prairie State, Olive-Harvey all received awards.

Worth knowing: This is a workforce board moving public workforce dollars, so awards look like service delivery contracts tied to participant counts rather than open philanthropy, and 370 of 389 grants stay in Illinois. University-side recipients get small amounts, UIC at $50,000 and Discovery Partners Institute at $488,000, while a growing cluster of small maternal health and doula grants suggests recent expansion beyond classic job training.
