Dear Employers,
As the Workforce Board for Linn, Marion, Polk and Yamhill Counties, Willamette Workforce Partnership (WWP), is dedicated and determined to do everything we can to help. With the bombardment of emails, tweets, posts and newscasts, one of the ways we can assist is to disseminate and communicate correct and useful information.
Many businesses are struggling with voluntary and/or forced closure to help mitigate the spread of Covid 19, we are here to offer our assistance through this concerning time. WWP has been authorized to offer financial support for those small businesses in need. To apply for this assistance contact Suzie Gibson in our office at sgibson@willwp.org.
