Our heartfelt support goes out to you during this difficult time of transition. You don't need to go through this job search alone. Minnesota Job Partners has been selected by a committee of your colleagues to provide Dislocated Worker Program services in order to help you prepare for new employment.

Please review a summary of the program benefits so that you are aware of the opportunities available to you.

The Dislocated Worker Program is a State-funded grant, so there is no cost to you. We strongly recommend that you enroll in this valuable program.
