PY25/FY26-4 - WIOA Rapid Response (DW)
*************************************
In accordance with the Department of Economic Security Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act
Rapid Response Policy Chapter 2 Section 900, subsection 912 indicates, "Pursuant to Section 134(a)(2)
of the WIOA and 20 CFR § 683.120(f), the State may reserve up to 25 percent of the dislocated worker
funds allocated, pursuant to the WIOA Section 132{b)(2)(8), and the Workforce Arizona Council's
Funding Allocation Policy. The Council votes annually on whether to hold Rapid Response funding at the
State level or provide Rapid Response funding to the LWDBs. DES distributes these funds to the LWDBs
annually."
In May 2025, the Council approved to hold 25% of Dislocated Worker funds for rapid response;
distributing 10% to the Local Workforce Development Boards and 15% to the Department of Economic
Security.
The rapid response funding allocations issued on August 13, 2025 are being revised to comply with the
Council approved distribution. The revised total is $2,351,964 (takes into account de-obligation for the
Navajo Nation).
The purpose of rapid response is to "promote economic recovery and vitality by developing an ongoing,
comprehensive approach to identifying, planning for, responding to layoffs and dislocations, and
preventing or minimizing the impact of layoffs of dislocations on workers, businesses, and communities."
[20 CFR § 682.300(b)]. List of elements of a successful rapid response system.
Period of Availability for Expenditure of WIOA Title I Funds:
Pursuant to 20 CFR 683.110, funds allocated by a State to a LWDA under subpart - A sections 128(b)
and 133(b ), for any Program year are available for expenditure only during that program year and the
succeeding program year. Funds that are not expended by a LWDA in the two-year period described in
paragraph {b) ( 1) of section 128 {b) and 133(b) of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act shall be
returned to the State. Funds so returned are available for expenditure by State and local recipients and
sub recipients only during the third program year of availability. These funds may be used for statewide
projects or distributed to other LWDAs, which had fully expended their allocation of funds for the same
program year within the two-year period.
Reports will be pulled from the system of record, so please ensure that data pertaining to the service
provision and other relevant activities have been entered in accordance with the IGA.
Please send your questions to WIOA@azdes.gov.
