The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act Youth Program is designed to help youth with barriers to employment receive resources and services to help them obtain meaningful employment opportunities.  Mountain View High School has hosted  Orientations and Information Session about WIOA (formerly WIA)  for many years.  Recently, the WIA Program has expanded their services and is now referred to as WIOA or Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act.

“President Barack Obama signed the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) into law on July 22, 2014.

WIOA is designed to help job seekers access employment, education, training, and support services to succeed in the labor market and to match employers with the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy.
