Finding Jobs for Mature Workers

Finding work is hard for millions of people in this economy–but even more so for disadvantaged workers aged 55+.  The National council on Aging (NCOA) helps through our Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP), funded by the U.S. Dept of Labor.  Recently SCSEP opened a office in West Virginia, where staff not only train and place older workers, but also screen them for benefits to help them pay for food, medicine, and more.  For more information, please click on SCSEP
