The COVID-19 Humanitarian Grant is a collaborative effort between workforce development agencies on all levels, federal, state, and local. In the South Central Region this grant has been chosen to provide career and training services to workers impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.

 

“The COVID-19 Humanitarian Grant is a Disaster Recovery Dislocated Worker Grant (DWG), implemented as a result of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) public health emergency declaration regarding the COVID-19 crisis. As a result, the U.S Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration (USDOL/ETA) is making disaster recovery grant funds available for states to request in order to aid in the recovery process. Despite the focus of the national health emergency, the grant follows conditions associated with TEGL 12-19 for Disaster Recovery Dislocated Worker Grants, as well as terms and conditions set forth in the grant award.” (COVID-19 Humanitarian Grant Policies and Procedures revised 2-19-2021)

 

 

Eligible individuals will have the opportunity to receive career and training services so that they may reintegrate into the workforce after being affected by COVID-19. Participants in this grant program will be assisted with engaging in training services that will result in un-subsidized employment.

 

If you would like more information about the COVID19 Humanitarian Grant program or the eligibility requirements, please contact your local Job Center.
