Commonwealth Corporation

Commonwealth Corporation Building skills for a strong economy. In Massachusetts there is a mismatch between the skills that people have and the skills that businesses need.

We address this mismatch by investing in training and education that help people get better jobs. It could be people who are already working who need additional skills, people who are unemployed, or youth looking to enter in the workforce. In the last 5 years, we’ve worked with more than 30,000 youth and adults.

A newly released report examines the barriers shaping employment for Massachusetts youth and young adults, including early work experience, changing entry-level opportunities, and persistent disparities across communities.

Published by the Massachusetts Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development’s Department of Economic Research, the report explores how structural, demographic, and regional factors influence labor force participation and employment outcomes.

It also highlights Commonwealth Corporation’s YouthWorks, which provides paid work experiences, career readiness training and sector-based skills development for young people.

The findings offer important insight into Massachusetts’ changing youth labor market and the strategies needed to help young people build skills, gain experience, and access meaningful career pathways.
