 Delores Curry (L) and Camden Blankenship (R) said "We're here to help"
Area residents enjoyed the Open House The new Grantsville Dislocated Worker's Center on Main Street in Grantsville held an open house Friday. Camden Blankenship, a coordinator for the local program, welcomed community residents, Workforce Investment officials and coordinators for the Bureau of Employment Programs to the site located in the former Garland's Grocery. Several residents and officials stopped by to welcome the new center to the county. "We're here to provide free services to people who need help getting jobs," said Delores Curry. "We are a satellite of the Parkersburg Job Service office. Anyone can benefit from our resources," said Blankenship. The new office has several computers with high-speed access for "anything job related." Resumes may be prepared free of charge, with assistance by the staff.

Blankenship said the office will likely stay open if it is used by local residents. The site will also be used to update unemployment benefits. "We are trying to orient the community to our services and promote visitors to our offices," he said. "With better communications, everyone benefits." |
