With Idaho’s economy booming and the state continuing to grow, businesses have struggled to find the employees they need. But help is just around the corner.

The application window for the new Idaho LAUNCH program opened on Oct. 3. Idaho LAUNCH will provide up to $8,000 to Idaho high school graduates who pursue “in-demand” careers through education or vocational
training. Hats off to Gov. Little for championing Idaho LAUNCH and to the Idaho Legislature for its approval.
