Effective July 8, 2024, we are excited to welcome 16 new Eligibility Workers to our Department of Social Services family. These talented individuals will be located in the Carmen Lane Training Room and will be assigned to two different supervisors. Until their training starts on August 19, 2024, they will focus on a special project to support our branch with varying tasks.

Our newest Eligibility Workers will undergo a comprehensive training program beginning August 19, 2024. This training will equip them with the necessary skills to excel in their roles and support our mission effectively. They will be guided by our dedicated training team:

We are thrilled to have such a dynamic group of new Eligibility Workers joining us. Their support will be invaluable in helping us maintain our high standards of service and efficiency. Together, we are moving towards a brighter and more productive future.
