What: A virtual event discussing apprenticeship and grants programs for New Jersey’s direct care workers (i.e., CHHAs, CNAs, DSPs). We’ll have presentations from NJ’s Department of Labor on their programs and the resources they have to help employers apply for them, a panel of direct care employers discussing how they have used these programs, and a presentation on the DSP Career Development Program. There’ll be time for Q&A after each presentation.
Why: To connect direct care employers with apprenticeship and grant funding to attract and retain direct care workers.
