The U.S. Department of Labor’s Chief
Evaluation Office (CEO) is undertaking the Evaluation of Strategies
Used in the TechHire and Strengthening Working Families Initiative
(SWFI) Grant Programs. The evaluation includes both implementation
and impact components. The purpose of the evaluation is to identify
whether the grants help low-wage workers obtain employment in and
advance in H-1B industries and occupations and, if so, which
strategies are most helpful. This is for an 18-month participant
follow-up survey.
