    TTEXAS WWORKFORCE CCOMMISSION WORKFORCE INVESTMENT ACT TITLE I-B PROGRAM YEAR 2007 TTABLE OF CCONTENTS Part I: Texas Workforce Solutions Overview 2 Part II: Statewide Performance 22 Part III: Local Performance 29 Texas Workforce Commission 1 Texas Workforce Solutions Overview Mission To promote and support a workforce system that offers employers, individuals, and communities the opportunity to achieve and sustain economic prosperity. Texas Workforce Solutions, comprising the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) in partnership with 28 Local Workforce Development Boards (Boards), offers services through 233 Texas Workforce Centers and satellite offices (Workforce Centers), the Texas Workforce Investment Council (TWIC), and additional workforce partners. In 1995, the Texas Legislature consolidated 28 employment and training programs from 10 state agencies under the auspices of TWC. Since then, TWC has transitioned many workforce services, including those under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), to the Boards. Workforce Centers provide customers with a full complement of workforce services, with service delivery integrated to the maximum extent possible, thus providing locally managed and delivered services that meet the needs of employers and job seekers. To achieve its mission, Texas Workforce Solutions continually seeks to: • ensure employers have a skilled and trained workforce to compete in a global economy; • equip the workforce with the necessary skills for continued employment; • maximize its financial and human resources; • actively engage community partners by leveraging their talents and expertise; • develop and market state-of-the-art tools and products that support business growth; and • eliminate duplicative efforts and administrative waste. Each of the 28 Boards represents business, labor, education, and the community, ensuring that a strong, market-driven entity will develop a model for service delivery that responds to the skill needs of employers, and the needs of job seekers in the community.
