Case Study Buffalo Worker Reemployment Center, Buffalo, New York

摘要

At the conclusion of the 1982 Federal fiscal year, the Department of Labor awarded grants to organizations in six areas to implement one-year demonstration programs aimed at assisting the readjustment of dislocated workers. These areas were Alameda County, CA; Buffalo, NY; Lehigh Valley, PA; Mid-Willamette Valley, OR; Milwaukee, WI; and Yakima, WA. This report is a case study of the program operated in Buffalo, NY by the Buffalo and Erie County Private Industry Council between October 1, 1982 and September 30, 1983. This program served a total of 798 workers who were dislocated after 1979. All program participants received job seeking skills training, and job search assistance; 240 participants received on-the-job training; and 140 received classroom training.
