Abstract	This report finds that now more than ever, New York needs a strong workforce development system--but declining funds and uncoordinated programs are obstacles to progress. In December 2003, the Center for an Urban Future and the New York Association of Training and Employment Professionals released a report, "Seeking a Workforce System," that examined the myriad funding streams supporting workforce programming in New York State. Detailed were how much money was in each, what services they could pay for, and what types of agencies and service providers could access them. The present report offers the same information, again presented in graphical form, using budget numbers from December 2005, the most recent available. It finds that the total has declined by $133 million, to less than $1.2 billion overall. The drop in funding means that the persistence of the problem that was identified in 2003--the pervasive lack of coordination and collaboration throughout this system--is even more consequential. New York's need for policies and resources that support education and workforce development has never been greater. Unfortunately, current policies do not adequately meet the demands of the changing labor market, and public resources that support these programs have sharply declined. (ERIC).
