Want to help shape the future of WV? WV New Jobs Coalition has FOUR opportunities available to lead WV communities through a visioning process – lifting the voices of community members and helping them to lead work in the place they call home.

Rather than assuming we know what people need, then presenting our solutions, we want to hear
directly from residents. What are their individual stories? What are the everyday struggles people face? 

What would make their communities stronger? Are there federal or state resources and policy changes that can make a real difference in people’s everyday lives?

We need your help to answer these questions and to make positive change in our state.
