What services available to help get me back to work?

unemployed_personA: There are three types of services that are potentially available to you at no cost:
All workers have access to core services like those listed below through a local One-Stop Career Center. You may have received information on these services through your Rapid Response team if you were part of a larger layoff. This is the first step in obtaining information such as:
