The Irvin L. Young Memorial Library has announced it will be hosting a job services help desk.
The desk will be open Thursday, Sept. 22, and Monday, Oct. 10, between 9:30 and 11:30 a.m. The desk will be located in the library’s Community Room.
The library is located at 431 W. Center St., Whitewater.
According to information released by the library, Amanda Abbott, who is from the Walworth County Job Center, will be hosting the desk and will be available to answer questions and assist individuals in career planning and finding other resources available to them.
“Under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunities Act (WIOA), we can assist eligible individuals in career planning, paying for school, and arranging apprenticeships and work experiences. Even more so, we have funding for supportive services to assist in breaking down the barriers that have kept individuals from getting the job or education that they desire. Most people do not know that these services are available in Walworth County, and we really want to spread the word. In addition, most people don’t know about the assistance available to them just by coming into the Job Center. That being said, we are hoping that in collaboration with local libraries, we can spread the word,” Abbott was quoted as saying in the release.
