Our heartfelt support goes out to you during this difficult time of transition. You won't have to go through this alone. Minnesota Job Partners is immediately available 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.
