THE FORCE BEHIND

THE ST. LOUIS WORKFORCE

Share Your SLATE Story

For more than 50 years, SLATE Missouri Job Center has connected St. Louis residents with employment, training, and career opportunities while helping local employers find the talent they need to grow.

Since 1975, generations of St. Louisans have turned to SLATE at different points in their career journeys. For some, SLATE provided a first job or paid work experience. For others, it offered an opportunity to learn new skills, earn a credential, find a new career, or get back on their feet after a setback.

Those experiences are an important part of SLATE's story—and we would like to hear yours.

Have you participated in a SLATE program, found a job or training opportunity through SLATE, partnered with us as an employer or community organization, or worked with SLATE in another way? Tell us about your experience and the role SLATE has played in your career, organization, family, or community.

Your story can help us reflect on SLATE's impact across generations and demonstrate how workforce opportunities continue to make a difference in St. Louis.
