How To Get Help
Contact an American Job Center and say you are interested in WIOA.

Eligible adults are those with low incomes who lack job skills currently in demand, or those classified as “dislocated workers” – individuals who have been laid off or received a layoff notice due to the prevailing economic conditions (not due to personal reasons) and require skills that are presently sought after.
