Center for Workforce Development: Career Center and Adult Career Program

Job search help, career counseling, skills upgrading and training; priority service for veterans and spouses. Not a caregiver-leave program.

Questions to ask the program

These are questions to ask the program, not a verdict on your eligibility. Confirm the current rules directly with the program.

• Does the person receiving care live in New York? Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
• Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name. Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.
• What documents do you need from us to start an application?
• Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
