Google Workforce Investment Act "and" [your state]

Sorry! Had to go do the Christmas dinner thingie with the folks! Won't be around much tomorrow morning either. Gotta go play golf with the Trinity! You know.... the Father, Son and Holy Ghost! Guess you know what part that leaves for ME to play! :wink:
I don't know your situation, so I don't know if you qualify for Unemployment Insurance. But, you don't HAVE to be collecting UI to qualify for WIA.
In MY state, they paid for school (about 5 grand) and the school included hotel accomodations.
Funds can be limited at times though, so you might have to wait awhile. Good luck!
