Home / About SWWDC The Southwest Washington Workforce Development Council (SWWDC ) provides leadership and resources to increase economic development with a trained and productive workforce in Clark, Cowlitz, and Wahkiakum Counties. By creating partnerships in the private and public sectors, the SWWDC provides a system supporting employers and residents of the tri-county area. By assisting employers with recruitment and employee retention, and helping individuals find employment and progress in their careers, the local area is better able to respond to the rapidly changing economy. Led by a diverse board of representatives from business, labor, community-based organizations and government agencies, the SWWDC responds to the unique needs of our greater community. With attention given to adults coming from challenging economic climates, displaced workers requiring retraining, or youth needing skills, the SWWDC uses the resources provided under Workforce Investment Act to provide the tools needed to get people to work. The SWWDC has partner sites with fully staffed and accessible centers serving Clark, Cowlitz, and Wahkiakum Counties.
