The road to financial independence starts with employment. HNSS Employment Services are here to help you find a job that's right for you. Your case manager will work with you to develop an employment plan that will help you meet your employment goals. 

This employment plan, or participation agreement, will outline the steps you need to take to find a job as quickly as possible. These steps could include going back to school, learning job-specific skills or gaining valuable experience by volunteering.

Financial assistance is available to help you pay for expenses associated with beginning an employment-related activity or a new job. Money is available for expenses such as:

• new clothing
• tools and equipment
• transportation costs
• tuition and/or training costs
• childcare costs

You may also be able to get an advance to help pay for your childcare costs when you begin an employment-related activity or a new job.
