This report explores the current state of evaluation in workforce development programs with an eye toward improving outcomes for Black training participants. The report is important because increasing the number of Black workers who transition into good jobs depends, in part, on the effectiveness of training programs.

Key findings show:

Too few training program evaluations report outcomes by race. To determine which workforce programs had the best outcomes for Black participants, we reviewed more than 80 program evaluations. Of that group, we selected the 27 evaluations that tracked the race of participants and used the popular "career pathways" approach. Of these 27 evaluations, only six reported outcomes by race.

Only four of the training program evaluations reported positive outcomes for Black workers. The programmatic practices of these four career pathways programs also differed from one another. Some emphasized strong case management and addressed barriers that might otherwise prevent students from completing training, like child care and transportation. Some provided financial supports, such as weekly stipends or funding for textbooks and other course materials. Another common practice was a strong sectoral connection. Programs used strong ties to employers or unions to better understand the needs of the labor market and place job seekers into internships or permanent employment.

To improve performance accountability among programs, federal, state, and local officials should use more robust data analysis to advance racial equity in workforce training. To fully maximize outcomes and advance racial equity, program staff and evaluators should take two key steps: regularly disaggregate data by race and use multiple approaches to collect and analyze data by race. Further, we recommend that federal law require reporting and disclosure of program-level workforce performance data by race and allocate resources for this purpose. Also, where Black workers are systematically excluded from jobs that pay livable wages with benefits, we encourage workforce policies and public investments that focus on these occupations to make special efforts to recruit and effectively serve more Black participants.

Targeted Universalism is a different way-a powerful way-to make the transformational changes we need. Changes we need to improve life chances, promote inclusion, and enhance and sustain equitable policies and programs. To better understand a targeted universalism framework, please enjoy this brief animated video, which explains the difference between targeted universalism and more traditional policy approaches. Learn more about this concept here.

Also: check out our curriculum based on this video. They include an introductory 30-minute workshop, a 60-minute trainer module, and a 90-minute deeper dive. The modules are designed for a variety of audiences and center arts-based and popular education practices. View these modules here:

2. Targeted Universalism - Expanding Belonging (60-minute)

3. Targeted Universalism - Belonging in Praxis (90-minute)

What is the most effective and sustainable policy response to problems in our society?

Universal approaches are widely used in order to package policies for broad appeal.

Universal policies such as Social Security and minimum wage laws provide the same benefits or minimum protections to everyone, regardless of status or group membership.

But by treating everyone the same, Universal approaches can't root out group-based discrimination, and may actually deepen inequality between groups rather than reduce it.

And by providing benefits or protections to everyone, resources that could be targeted to groups worse off instead flow to those who are better off.

In contrast to universalism, targeted approaches are commonly used.

Targeted policies provide benefits or protections based on group membership or status.

Snap, the food stamp program, conditions benefits on income level.

The Americans with Disabilities Act requires public accessibility for disabled groups.

And affirmative action focuses on historically disadvantaged groups.

Targeted approaches are vulnerable to the critique that they unfairly favor constituent groups over the public good by directing resources to marginalized groups who are already subjected to unfair stereotypes.

But Universal and targeted approaches are false choices.

There is a third way: Targeted Universalism.

Targeted Universalism means setting universal goals that can be achieved through targeted approaches.

This approach targets the various needs of each group while reminding us that we are all part of the same social fabric.

This can be accomplished by following these five steps:

First set a universal goal. For example 100 percent proficiency in eighth grade math.

Second measure how the overall population fares relative to the universal goal.
In this example we might discover that only 80% of eighth graders are proficient in eighth grade math.

Third measure the performance of population segments relative to the universal goal.

So although 80% of all eighth graders are proficient we might find that only 70% of Latinx students are proficient.

Fourth understand how structures and other factors support or impede groups' progress toward the universal goal.

For our Latinx students, classroom instruction materials and lessons designed for English speakers may impede learning including math proficiency.

Finally implement targeted strategies so that each and every group can achieve the universal goal based upon their needs and circumstances.

This may take the form of ESL-specific math tutoring for our Latinx students while another group may require a completely different strategy to achieve the same universal goal.

Targeted Universalism rejects a blanket universal, which may be indifferent to the reality that different groups are situated differently relative to the institutions and resources of society.

By aspiring toward shared universal goals, Targeted Universalism empowers targeted strategies capable of achieving those goals, while moving us beyond concerns over disparities alone, and toward our highest aspirations for all.

Targeted Universalism: Policy and Practice

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Download this primer here. Read our press release here.
In an era of political polarization and fiscal austerity, policy debates too readily become trapped in a binary of either universal responses or targeted solutions. Universal responses enjoy a degree of legitimacy in a diverse and pluralistic society, but they may also be viewed as unaffordable and overly ambitious, while also inadequate at helping those most in need. Therefore, the most marginalized people are often the most skeptical of ostensibly universal policies. Targeted policies may be more efficient and less costly, but by targeting a particular group, these approaches are often viewed as unfairly helping one group over another, seeding hostility and resentment.

Targeted universalism means setting universal goals pursued by targeted processes to achieve those goals. Within a targeted universalism framework, universal goals are established for all groups concerned. The strategies developed to achieve those goals are targeted, based upon how different groups are situated within structures, culture, and across geographies to obtain the universal goal. Targeted universalism is goal oriented, and the processes are directed in service of the explicit, universal goal.
Listen to an interview with Director john a. powell on targeted universalism
Among the core strengths of the targeted universalism framework is its potential for ingenuity and boldness in policy thinking, which opens up the possibilities for experimentalist design in a nuanced fashion that rejects an "either-or" approach.

Targeted universalism is a platform to operationalize programs that move all groups toward the universal policy goal as well as a way of communicating and publicly marketing such programs in an inclusive, bridging manner. It is an approach that supports the needs of particular groups, even the politically powerful or those in the majority, while reminding everyone that we are all part of the same social and civic fabric. As such, targeted universalist policies are more resistant to the critique that government programs serve special interests, whoever that might be.
Watch john a. powell break down targeted universalism in this short video
Watch an animated explainer video on targeted universalism

We urgently need aligned and coherent strategies that create belonging and promote bridging. Targeted universalism provides an approach for orchestrating these efforts. Targeted universalistic interventions undermine active or passive forces of structural exclusion and marginalization, and promote tangible experiences of belonging. Outgroups are moved from societal neglect to the center of societal care at the same time that more powerful or favored groups' needs are addressed.

The implementation strategies derived from a targeted universalism framework come in many forms. Some may be simple technical fixes or modest changes to existing programs. Others may be more sweeping changes or deeper structural reforms. Although the targeted universalism framework supports a wide range of policy interventions, the process for deriving implementation strategies unlocks the potential for transformative change. Such changes cannot arise without unraveling the narrow range of preconceived implementation possibilities held by many policymakers and reconstructing aspirations for an equitable society in which everyone can thrive. By emphasizing the universal goal as a way of justifying a diversity of implementation strategies, transformative change possibilities can be envisioned, pursued, and aligned.

This primer is offered in the spirit of sharpening and contributing to a large body of policy models. Targeted universalism is a platform that jettisons an overly formalistic, one-size-fits-all policy formula in favor of an approach that is more outcome-oriented. As such, targeted universalism opens up the possibilities for experimentalist, manifold pathway policy regimes. It is a framework that adds nuance that can complement and accommodate the best work within the domain of innovating policy change. This type of agenda requires deliberate strategizing, ground-truthing, and smart organizing. The growing community of powerful policy, advocacy, community- based organizations and others can meet the challenge. Indeed, they are already well on the way.

There is growing evidence that shaping work of the future to achieve a more broadly shared prosperity will require rebuilding worker voice and representation, rebalancing power in employment relations, and making fundamental changes in American labor and employment policies. As noted in the initial report of our MIT Task Force on the Work of the Future:
"Although we are uncertain precisely what rules should govern worker representation in the United States, we are certain that the nearly 'voiceless' model the nation has embraced over the last four decades is out of balance."

The process is designed to help leaders and organizations who want to proactively understand and address racism, both in their organization and in the community where the organization is working. The Racial Equity Institute, LLC process is just that: an 18-month to two-year process.

Our experience is that the goals of understanding and addressing racism can rarely be achieved in a three-hour or one-day workshop. Racism is a fierce, ever-present, challenging force, one which has structured the thinking, behavior, and actions of individuals and institutions since the beginning of U.S. history. To understand racism and effectively begin dismantling it requires an equally fierce, consistent, and committed effort.

Fund for Shared Insight launched Listen4Good as a national initiative in 2016.

Since then, hundreds of participating direct-service nonprofits and government agencies have used its survey-based methodology, tools, and resources to listen and respond to the opinions and preferences of more than 170,000 nonprofit clients across the country.

Listen4Good started as a capacity-building grants program. Nonprofits nominated by a funder received a grant (half paid by the funder and half by Shared Insight) and free access to Listen4Good's resources and training services, including one-on-one coaching. With an eye toward creating a more broadly available, high-impact online product, Shared Insight also supported a testing program, L4G Online Beta, with nearly 200 organizations participating more independently through an interactive, resource-filled web app.

Listen4Good moved to fee-for-service in 2020.

Taking lessons from its grants and testing rounds and analyses by Shared Insights learning and evaluation partners, Listen4Good introduced two new programs in 2020, Listen4Good Online+ and Listen4Good Premium. The programs marked Listen4Good's evolution from a grants program to a fee-for-service program accessible to all direct-service organizations and government agencies.

Listen4Good for Nonprofits

Listen4Good is based on a multi-step feedback-loop process that includes designing a client survey, collecting responses, interpreting the data, responding to the results, and going back to those who were surveyed to share what was learned and what actions will be taken.

Participants have unlimited access to interactive tools, including a web app featuring step-by-step guides, video tutorials, and rich content about high-quality feedback practices. Coaches with expertise in survey design, data analysis, and organizational change - and who bring a strong equity lens to their work - are accessible throughout the process. An online peer community and regular schedule of webinars offer group learning and engagement opportunities.

Studies show that Listen4Good-participating organizations

use Listen4Good survey data to make specific improvements to programs, services, operations, and client-staff interactions;

build enduring institutional capacity that allows them to maintain strong feedback systems even after Listen4Good;

gain a peer learning community and deeper ties with funders; and

develop a culture of openness and listening, which catalyzes their broader equity, diversity, and inclusion journeys.

Funders are invited to sponsor or underwrite organizations' participation in Listen4Good, joining other funders committed to more meaningfully connecting with the people and communities most impacted by philanthropy's work but often least consulted by nonprofits and funders.

Listen4Good offers funders the opportunity to be co-learners and critical catalysts in building the feedback capacity of their grantee partners while also enhancing their own listening practices.

Learning about client opinions and experiences alongside their grantees can have lasting impact across the many dimensions of funders' work, deepening their commitment to equity and informing grantmaking, strategy development, evaluation, and more.

"Now our struggle is for genuine equality, which means economic equality. For we know now, that it isn't enough to integrate lunch counters. What does it profit a man to be able to eat at an integrated lunch counter if he doesn't have enough money to buy a hamburger?" Dr. Martin Luther King Jr invoked economic equality as a necessary part of racial equality. Yet, in many ways, our country is at least as divided economically as it was in 1968.

As a training program that leads to high-quality and high-paying jobs, Registered Apprenticeship has the potential to serve as a solution to achieving greater equity. To reach that potential, apprenticeship leaders and providers must confront the structural racism that persists within the U.S. workforce, including the Registered Apprenticeship system. Join current and former state apprenticeship directors in this upcoming discussion to learn how they are expanding racial and economic equity in Registered Apprenticeship.

Developed with the U.S. Department of Labor. Pursuant to the National Apprenticeship Act, the Department of Labor works to expand opportunities related to apprenticeship programs. This project has been funded, either wholly or in part, with Federal funds from the Department of Labor, Employment & Training Administration under the contract number/work order DOL-OPS-16-A-0012/1605DC-18-F-00060.
