Overview

Communities and Workforce Development

Edwin Melendez, Editor

This volume constitutes a major step towards a comprehensive assessment of the role that community organizations play in revamping the employment services industry. Most importantly, it shows how a new style of labor market intermediary has eveloved from focusing almost exclusively on the provision of employment services to job seekers to simultaneously addressing the needs of both job seekers and employers.

This is an interesting look at the state of nonprofit employment training during a period of policy and economic change. The way the editor structured parts of the book helped me digest the qualitative research that makes up the bulk of the collection.
