TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - CareerSource Capital Region will be providing temporary employment to Floridians affected by Hurricane Michael thanks to a grant. 

CareerSource Capital Region was awarded $200,000 to assist disaster relief victims with employment opportunities and government and non-profit organizations with projects that have a focus on providing food, clothing, shelter and other humanitarian help.  

Individuals who qualify for disaster relief employment are those who are temporarily or permanently laid off as a consequence of Hurricane Michael, dislocated workers including the self-employed who have lost work due to the hurricane, and individuals who have been unemployed long-term. 

Temporary positions available through the grant involve working at approved governmental or non-profit agencies. These temporary positions may include administrative, clerical, janitorial and building maintenance. 

Individuals who have lost their job as a result of Hurricane Michael should create a profile in Employ Florida: www.employflorida.com [email.prnewswire.com] and upload a copy of their resume.
