Workforce Resilience Grant Program | Colorado Community College System Supporting Rural Colorado Businesses and Individuals The Workforce Resilience Program’s (WRP) is a statewide program to support rural individuals negatively affected by Covid-19 to recover their career sustainability, profitability, and longevity. These one-time federal dollars are intended to be a flexible and easy-to-access resource for rural Colorado.
WRP is administered by the Colorado Community College System (CCCS) and the Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT). Facilitate collaboration among rural employers, stakeholders, and community colleges to enhance workforce skills through business-led training and accessible education, fostering sustainable careers and economic growth in rural Colorado.

For individuals, workforce resilience means having the skills and training needed to get a good job, advance within an organization, or to pivot to a new field. WRP launched its grant program in July of 2023. The WRP grant offers two-year funding to rural organizations for the development of training programs to support the skill development of current and new employees.
