The Opportunity Trust Fund (OTF) strategy provides North Jersey Partners the flexibility within the overall WIRED initiative to incorporate new activities as projects are implemented in the region. The OTF invests in projects that support the overall North Jersey Partners initiative by filling identified gaps in training and workforce development. In addition, the OTF considers promising workforce development programs that have been in existence and/or have the potential to scale up as well as new programs that address future workforce needs. The OTF will fund projects that address best practices, collaboration, regionalism, scalability, sustainability, and investment leveraging.
