Illinois Energy Transition Navigators Program (CEJA)

The goal is to establish a network of community-based providers across the state of Illinois. These providers will offer community education, outreach, and recruitment services to encourage eligible individuals to participate in clean energy workforce and contractor development programs. Investments in clean energy technology and infrastructure, funded through CEJA and other state and federal programs, will offer numerous employment and business development opportunities for the residents of Illinois. Historically, these types of opportunities have not always been available to some populations and communities. CEJA establishes various new programs and expands existing programs aimed at accelerating the adoption of clean energy sources, electric vehicles, and energy efficiency efforts.
