Welcome to the

Dislocated Workers Program

Minnesota Job Partners has been selected by a committee of your colleagues to provide Dislocated Worker Program services 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.

This program is separate from and in addition to any services you are receiving or have received from Right Management.  You can take advantage of both resources concurrently. Where the Right Management services are available in the short term, this program will be in effect much longer.

In order to enroll in the program, you will need to attend an Orientation/Registration session, then schedule a time to meet with a career counselor. Please remember to stay in touch with your counselor at least once per month to let them know of your progress. And when you find your next job, please call to let your counselor know of your success!

This intake session will take approximately 1 ½ hours. In order to enroll, please bring the following documents with you:

2. Social Security card or a copy of your W2 with your social security number on it. If you are not a US citizen, bring your work visa.

If you do not have ALL of the required documentation, still come to an enrollment session. You will need to turn in the documents, however, before you can sign up to meet with a counselor.


Individualized Employment Session (IEP): The second and last step to enrollment is to meet with a Career Counselor AFTER the intake session to develop your Individualized Employment Plan (IEP). There will be sign up sheets to select a date and time to meet with a counselor at your Enrollment Session.
