Creating government accountability and an enhanced focus on outcomes
Increasing government performance and transparency
Informing and engaging Virginians in a dialogue about the state's future

October 2015 Council Meeting
The Council on Virginia's Future met on October 6, 2015 in the State Capitol. Much of the meeting focused on the state's progress with workforce development -- both current projects and new initiatives, including those created in response to the Council's last meeting in December 2014. Workforce development has been a key component of Council efforts since 2013 and is also a major part of Governor McAuliffe's New Virginia Economy plan.
Much more information on the meeting, including all materials presented, is available here.
