KANSAS WORKS STATE BOARD

The KANSAS WORKS State Board charge is to connect all services into a comprehensive workforce system and to serve as the organizer of those connections with the ultimate-goal of positioning KANSASWORKS as the premier workforce system in the nation. The board's diverse representation assists in establishing connections and provides a statewide perspective... The KANSAS WORKS State Board plays an important role in bringing citizen involvement and engagement to the state's workforce development efforts and in providing strategic leadership for workforce development and local/regional leaders throughout the state. The KWSB's strength is less in its statutorily-defined decision-making authority and more as a forum for policymakers, informed citizens and stakeholders to influence public policy for the improvement of the State's workforce.
