Our heartfelt support goes out to you during this job loss. Minnesota Job Partners is 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.

THE ENROLLMENT PROCESS:

The intake session is the first step to enrollment. You need to sign-up for an upcoming intake session, by e-mailing (preferred) or calling 763-807-4235 the Job Partners Manager, Client Delivery, Lisa C. Thomas, at lisa.thomas@c-m-s.org to find out when the next enrollment session is occurring.

Intake sessions will take approximately 1 hour. In order to enroll, please bring the following documents with you:

A valid state driver’s license or a state ID card
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.

AND

Citizenship or Right to Work documentation. One document is needed. These documents include your birth certificate, US passport, other registration card, Native American Tribal document, public assistance or food stamp records, Alien registration card indicating Right to Work, Naturalization Certificate, foreign passport stamped with eligible to work, hospital birth record, or Department of Corrections record indicating citizenship.
Proof of Lay-off and/or separation letter

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 on another day AFTER the intake session to develop your Individualized Employment Plan (IEP). You may meet with your counselor at our offices in St. Paul (Bandana Square area) or in Plymouth (Hwy 169 and Rockford Road area). Please let Lisa know your preference when you RSVP for the intake session.

Counselor Meetings

Individual meetings with counselors will begin Individual Employment Planning. Once this meeting is completed you will be fully enrolled and ready to receive all the valuable services of this program.
