About Westlake Worksource Center

PACE operates the Westlake Worksource Center located in the Westlake area of City of Los Angeles. The City of Los Angeles Workforce Investment Board (WIB) sponsors this network, with its funding coming from the US Department of Labor under the Workforce Investment Act of 1998.

The Westlake Worksource Center offers integrated and comprehensive services for both job seekers and employers. Acting as the lead of this network, PACE works with other entities and some of them are co-located at the One Stop. These entities include West Los Angeles City College, California State Employment Development Department (EDD), East San Gabriel Valley Regional Occupational Program, Los Angeles City Department of Aging, California State Department Rehabilitation and other community based agencies such as AADAP and Asian Rehabilitation Services.

All activities at this center are customer-focused and performance based. Its ultimate objective is job placement.
