What Louisiana runs on

Of 64 counties, the most common economic types are government (9), manufacturing (8), mining and energy (6). That matters for this work because it decides whether the employers are already here or whether the route runs through a bigger labour market nearby — which the county pages below name individually.

What is already funded

Programme names, amounts and deadlines change. These are the four doors; verify the current terms with the source before counting on a number.

All seven routes

Sources. Employment totals and the share of each occupation that is women and that is Hispanic: US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Current Population Survey annual averages, reproduced as published. The Latina share is an estimate: BLS publishes the two shares separately and not their intersection, so the two are multiplied and labelled as such everywhere it appears. County economic type: USDA Economic Research Service County Typology Codes; labour markets: 2020 Commuting Zones. Funded training routes: WIOA through local workforce boards, registered apprenticeships via apprenticeship.gov, and federal student aid via studentaid.gov. We publish the source so the arithmetic can be checked rather than trusted.
