Job Seeking Questions

 

Are you aware of the services available to low-income individuals and families?

The Workforce Development Self-Sufficiency programs provide employment and training services to food stamp recipients, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) cash welfare recipients, and non-custodial parents, with the goal of gaining the ability to support themselves and their families without public assistance.

The Missouri Employment and Training Program (METP) provides job search and job readiness assistance to food stamp recipients. The Career Assistance Program (CAP) provides a wide range of services to cash welfare recipients such as subsidized employment, on-the-job training, and vocational and educational training in addition to soft skills classes and job search assistance. Non-custodial parents who continue to pay their child support obligation under a Temporary Payment Plan may participate in skills training, vocational education, and job search assistance through the Parent's Fair Share program. Other low income adults may qualify for extra help from the Adults Program. Our front desk personnel will be glad to direct you to these various workforce development professionals.
