Our Impact
Livingston Academic Center of Excellence works to expand access to education and workforce opportunities for students and young adults who may not otherwise have access to these pathways.
Our programs focus on helping participants develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to pursue meaningful careers and long-term economic mobility.
Through our education and workforce initiatives, LACE aims to:
• Increase access to career training and certification programs
• Support successful transitions from education to employment
• Connect participants with industry professionals and workforce opportunities
• Strengthen workforce readiness within the communities we serve
By connecting training, mentorship, and career pathways, LACE helps individuals move from opportunity to achievement.
Why It Matters
Many young adults and job seekers face barriers when trying to access career opportunities. Limited exposure to career pathways, lack of professional networks, and financial barriers can make it difficult to pursue training and employment in growing industries.
Livingston Academic Center of Excellence was created to help bridge this gap.
By providing accessible training programs, workforce preparation, and connections to industry partners, LACE works to ensure individuals have the support and resources needed to pursue meaningful careers.
When individuals gain access to education and workforce opportunities, communities benefit as well. Strong career pathways contribute to economic growth, workforce development, and increased stability for families and communities.
At LACE, we believe that expanding access to education and career training creates lasting opportunities for individuals and the communities they serve.
