In October, our WorkingNation team continued to address the issues facing today’s workforce and employers by appearing on local and national news outlets to discuss the ongoing unemployment crisis.

As always, our goal is to share stories about organizations and programs helping to put Americans back to work. Here are some of our places we shared those stories in October.
