How to: Recover after a layoff

Connect with your local job center

Connect with an American Job Center near you for job search help and reemployment training funds.

AJCs are free resources that help people search for jobs, find training, and answer other employment related questions. There are nearly 2,400 AJCs, located in communities in every state.

Most offer workshops on job search topics, free computer and printer access, and connections to other community services. They also offer special resources for laid-off workers, veterans, youth, and others.  When you contact an AJC, ask if you might be eligible for programs such as the dislocated worker program or funds for short-term training.

To do: Look up your closest American Job Centers and contact or visit one to learn about services and eligibility for reemployment services and training.
