IHCF and Indiana Department of Workforce Development are planning statewide career fairs for dislocated workers. The Dislocated Worker Pilot Program was launched at Millers Merry Manor in Wakarusa this past spring.  A second program was launched on August 7, 2009 in Newburgh.  The career fair introduced long term care careers to dislocated workers in the local area.  The hands-on-approach assist unemployed workers in identifying careers in long term care.  IHCF will be contacting members to serve as host facility for the career fair and invite human resource representative to attend the career fair.
