Recently the Women's Center was awarded a grant by the State of Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) to assist Displaced Homemakers.
Under this grant we are able to assist individuals 35 years of age or older, who are unemployed or underemployed, and need training and support to transition back into the workforce or into a better paying position. These are individuals who have been financially supported by a spouse or family member, but are no longer due to divorce, separation, death, disability or unemployment. All services are free of charge for men and women who meet the program criteria. Please feel free to distribute the attached flyer and/or refer clients as needed.
Under a grant from the DEO we assist homemakers 35 years of age or older, male or female, needing training and support to transition into their first job or back into the workforce. These individuals were once supported by a spouse or family member, but due to divorce, separation, death, or disability they are now unemployed or underemployed and need to become self- sufficient.
