Title V Senior Employment Program

Rufty-Holmes Senior Center is the local coordinator for the Title V Senior Employment Program. The Title V Senior Employment Program is a job training program targeted at lower income older adults who need a period of re-training or re-tooling to be employable in the private sector workforce. Funding is provided for 24 minimum wage training positions. Working in concert with the Employment Security Commission’s JobLink program, older adult enrollees are placed in positions with government and non-profit agencies to work while attending training classes and programs. Staff members work with enrollees to eventually obtain employment in the private sector.
