Under the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (WIA) which
replaced the Job Training Partnership Act, funds for services to WIA
participants in the State of Illinois are distributed by the Illinois Department of Commerce &
Economic Opportunity (DCEO) by region. Under WIA these regions are referred
to as Local Workforce Areas (LWA). Local Workforce Area #7, #8, and #9 programs
are in the Chicagoland area. LWA #7 serves Western
and Southern Cook County, LWA #8 serves Northern Cook County, and LWA #9 serves the city of Chicago.
