(Katy, Texas) The Gulf Coast Workforce Board and its operating affiliate Workforce Solutions-Gulf Coast are proud to announce the grand opening of its newly expanded office serving Katy, western Harris County, northern Fort Bend County and southern Waller County.

The demand for our career and employer services had exceeded the capacity of our former location at Katy Mills,” said Mike Temple, director of the Gulf Coast Workforce Board and Workforce Solutions. “We are incredibly excited to expand our footprint and services in the Katy area with our new location.”

The new location at 24025 Katy Freeway, near the intersection of State Highway 99, will provide additional space for  individuals to build their careers and give area employers the ability to host recruitment drives and pre-employment seminars.

“We are very happy to have this additional space to serve both our local employers and residents,” said Lance LaCour, President and CEO of Katy Area Economic Development Council. “I know both will benefit from the expansion of services this new office provides.”
