Frederick County Workforce Service has unveiled a new Mobile Career
Center.
This new initiative will bring unemployment and workforce resources directly to people in underserved and rural areas of Frederick County.
From the county press release:
“While Frederick County boasts one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state at around 2.6%, we know that many people still face barriers to employment — particularly those without reliable transportation or internet access. The Mobile Career Center will help close those gaps,” said County Executive Fitzwater. “We are incredibly grateful for our congressional and community partners who have made this project possible.”
The state-of-the-art Mobile Career Center includes six computer-equipped workstations with internet access (including one ADA-accessible station), one dedicated staff workstation, a printer and scanner, and an outdoor awning and presentation screen for use at community events and workshops.
Once fully launched, the Mobile Career Center will travel throughout Frederick County to provide services such as job search assistance and resume support, interview coaching and career planning, digital literacy and skills development, referrals to training and supportive services, youth and young adult career exploration, and on-site workforce outreach at job fairs, community centers, and local events.
