Luzerne/Schuylkill Workforce Investment Board Executive Director Lucyann Vierling makes a point during an information session about how the board used funding it received through the federal stimulus plan during a meeting Thursday at the Keystone Job Corps Center in Drums.Money received by the Luzerne/Schuylkill Workforce Investment Board through the federal stimulus package is paying dividends in the region for young and displaced workers.

That was the message relayed during a public meeting of the board Thursday at the Keystone Job Corps Center in Drums.

Earlier this year, the workforce investment board received more than $3.5 million as part of the federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 – commonly known as the stimulus plan.

The funding was earmarked to provide adult workforce training, training for displaced workers, and summer jobs for young people throughout Luzerne and Schuylkill counties.

At the time, the WIB projected it will be able to serve 111 adults, 214 displaced workers and 480 youth from ages 14 to 24 with the federal stimulus funds. The program funds can be used over a two-year period.
