Department of Human Resources: Jobs Program

The JOBS Program which is DHR’s welfare to work program is operational in all 67 Alabama counties. The program provides services and work support to parents receiving cash assistance to help them find and retain employment. These services and supports seek to address barriers such as lack of adequate child care, poor access to transportation, domestic violence and substance abuse, all which greatly limit the ability to obtain and retain employment.

Services also include:

  • employability assessments
  • job readiness 
  • job skills training
  • disability assessments 
  • adult education. 

Following an initial interview which involves individual and family assessments, JOBS case managers provide services directly or by referral to other agencies.
