Expanding uses of disclosure
• Publicize data now available on number, types and wages of jobs at subsidized business projects
• Build “investment” in detailed subsidy disclosure through a practical development tool
![Page 3: McCourt and Damiani - JOB SNAPSHOT POWERPOINT … · Subsidy Amount Agency Press Release or Report Josh Arrow, VP 847-854-7085 STEP $15,000 2006 Subsidy Disclosure Reports Ray Baker,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042208/5eab8bbab89e36791516bda2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Purpose of Job Subsidy Snapshot Databases
• More partnerships between subsidized businesses and non-profit or public training providers
• Make grassroots workforce training and job placement groups aware of opportunities
• Expose substandard wages at subsidized sites
![Page 4: McCourt and Damiani - JOB SNAPSHOT POWERPOINT … · Subsidy Amount Agency Press Release or Report Josh Arrow, VP 847-854-7085 STEP $15,000 2006 Subsidy Disclosure Reports Ray Baker,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042208/5eab8bbab89e36791516bda2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Two approaches-Illinois and New York City
• Different geographic focus and data presentation
• Illinois—statewide, on-line Excel database
• New York City—focused on community boards in each of the five boroughs, interactive mapping

GJF-IL Job Snapshot Database
• “Snapshot” database includes a lot of data about projects NOT currently covered by the state’s disclosure law--e.g., coal development and technology innovation subsidies
• Uses state press release data from multiple agencies, press reports

• Distributed to 75 community and labor training organizations
• Described as ‘invaluable’ by CFL Workers Assistance Committee
• But still a learning process—many social service groups don’t know what subsidies are
