The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) has announced the availability of up to $100 million for Dislocated Worker Grants (DWGs) to help address the workforce‐related impacts of the public health emergency related to COVID‐19, also known as novel coronavirus.
“As Americans make sacrifices to combat the spread of coronavirus, President Trump's priority is to protect and sustain America's workers and their families,” U.S. Secretary of Labor Eugene Scalia said in a statement. “The availability of Dislocated Worker Grants will help states and communities strengthen their economies as we fight to slow the spread of the virus and regain our economic momentum.”
