What to Expect

Our office hours are casual, welcoming, and focused on helping you navigate whatever challenges you're facing.

Open Q&A Format

Bring any question - about unemployment benefits, healthcare options, job searching, or career pivots. No question is too basic or too complex.

Safe & Supportive

Job loss is stressful. Our sessions are judgment-free zones where you can share openly and get real support from people who understand.

Connect with Others

You're not alone in this. Meet others going through similar transitions and build connections that can help you forward.

How do I file for unemployment in my state?
