Work Passages Program for WorkFirst Recipients
Work Passages offers Evaluation, Job Placement, and Job Coaching to single parents who are WorkFirst recipients and who are dealing with the challenges of going to work and caring for their children. If you are receiving WorkFirst benefits, ask yourself the following questions:
Are you...
- Unable to decide what type of job you want
- Interested in job training
- Nervous about getting back into the routine of work after being out for a while
- Not sure why you have lost jobs in the past
- In need of extra support while training on a new job
- In need of one-on-one help finding the right job for your skills and interests
If you answered yes to any of these questions, talk to your Job Counselor.
You may benefit from Vocational Testing that helps you identify job interests as well as your skills and abilities. Through Work Passages you will have one-on-one help looking for a job, filling out applications, developing your job search, learning how to interview, and dealing with "sticky" issues such as why you may have been unemployed.
