CalWORKs Employment Services Division

California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) is a welfare program that provides cash assistance and services to eligible families with children.  If a family is short on cash and needs help with housing, food, clothes, and medical care, they may qualify to receive immediate short-term help.   Welfare to Work services are available to eligible CalWORKs adults to help them prepare for work and find a job. All CalWORKs recipients, unless exempt, are required to participate in the Welfare to Work Program.

The Yuba County Employment Services team is committed to assisting individuals in their efforts to become self-sufficient by providing a variety of workforce development programs and supportive services.  At the Yuba County One Stop offices clients are provided assistance from all components of the Welfare to Work program, including Supportive Services (assistance with transportation, childcare, and counseling), Work Experience Program, Job Coaching/Mentoring & Support, Vocational Education classes including job search readiness and paraprofessional training, Learning Disability Screening and Evaluation, and an on-line or printed Welfare to Work Handbook.
