WorkFirst

WorkFirst is a program designed to help people receiving public assistance, such as welfare, find and maintain employment. Its goal is to encourage and support work by providing job training, education, and resources tailored to individual needs. By promoting employment, WorkFirst aims to foster economic independence and reduce reliance on government aid, while also ensuring participants have the skills and support necessary to succeed in the workforce. The program balances helping individuals improve their employment prospects with promoting self-sufficiency and long-term stability.
