The Division of Workforce at the Mississippi Department of Human Services is promoting resources aimed at improving adults’ literacy, math and digital skills. The department says those skills can help adults pursue better jobs, support their families and participate fully in their communities.
The division connects clients with resources and community partners intended to improve workforce participation across Mississippi and help job seekers find resources for success. Information about the programs is available at mdhs.ms.gov/workforce/skills2work/.
