Through our many successful years of program development, we have created a program to ensure successful job placements. We are pleased to offer comprehensive long-term services to both the employer and employee.
Our program provides numerous employment services for recipients in Blue Earth and Steele County of Minnesota's Family Investment Program (MFIP), Diversionary Work Program (DWP), and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Programs (SNAP) Employment and Training Services.
Participants in our programs often have a strong drive to regain self-sufficiency and economic stability for their families and are committed to long-term employment.

the workplace.
