Harris County seeks to amend a workforce apprenticeship training contract, adding $2,820,000 for updated services through December 31, 2026.
Harris County Commissioners Court introduced a contract amendment on September 11, 2026, asking the County Judge to approve $2,820,000 in additional funding for an apprenticeship workforce training program. The agreement is with the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations TX Gulf Coast Federation. It updates the budget, scope of work, and funding source to County general funds, covering the period February 21, 2025 through December 31, 2026.
Harris County may spend $2.82 million in general funds on a workforce apprenticeship program. General funds come from county tax revenue, so residents have a stake in how those dollars are used.
