The website also provides business resources including; local, regional and federal partners.
"This week has been better for us now that we have the dislocated worker hotline in place. It has allowed us to help a lot more people, more effectively, and doing so remotely," Manager of the Dislocated Worker Program Michael Gates said.
Along with community resources, business resources, and more the website also offers information about COVID-19 health.
