Priti's Story

Priti enrolled into the WIOA Dislocated Worker program in November of 2022. Priti was eligible for the WIOA-DW program due to being laid off from the City Academy where she had previously worked for 11 years. Upon enrollment into the WIOA program, Priti was interested in learning more about job searching and the labor market. The grant provided Priti with assistance with labor market information, career planning, and workforce preparation. WIOA assisted Priti with paying for interview/work clothing as well as paying for a vehicle repair. On 11/28/2022. Priti officially started working at a legal firm as a General/Operations Manager. She is making $21.00 an hour working full time with full benefits.
