<p>The state allocates the remaining Dislocated Worker funding to the service delivery areas based upon information that will include insured unemployment data, unemployment concentrations, plant closing and mass layoff data, declining industries data, farmer/rancher economic hardship data and long-term unemployment data. Given that plant closure and mass layoff data is no longer produced by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the state will use the sub-state data set of the number of employers with 50 or more initial unemployment insurance claims in their stead. No other informational factors will be used. The data used and weight factors are:</p>

<p>The state Workforce Development Council has updated the policy for “Distribution of WIOA Title IB Formula Funds, Recapture and Reallocation”. It was approved by the Council’s One-Stop Committee on March 10, 2020, and is scheduled for final approval on April 7, 2020. The policy ensures that the state’s fund distribution model first allocates funding to the state’s two local areas. Within the largest local area, funds will be further distributed among the five service delivery areas. The policy directs the state to follow WIOA fund distribution requirements at WIOA Sec. 128(b) and Sec. 133(b) and can be found on the Council’s website at :</p>
