The Sheboygan Chamber of Commerce has received a $250,000 grant from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation. Officials say The grant will sustain the current Make Your Mark talent attraction and retention program.
The program employs a full-time transition support specialist who provides personalized, independent guidance to new residents regarding housing, childcare, healthcare, and community resources. The project helps to ensure that out-of-state talent doesn’t just fill a vacancy, but builds a life here in Wisconsin.
Sheboygan was one of 17 communities and organizations across the state sharing in $5 million dollars in grants aimed at strengthening the state’s workforce by attracting new workers and their families.
